Tonight, we went to Dongdaemun Design Plaza, an urban developmental landmark in Seoul. The architecture was fascinating to look at and neo-futuristic. It felt like I was in a StarTrek movie, out of this world to say the least. I loved how futuristic the design was, it kind of reminded me of the bean in Chicago.
