| Seoul, a historically cultural city, has been the capital
of Korea for more than 600 years since the Chosun Dynasty was
founded in 1392. About a quarter of the total Korean population
lives in Seoul, the center for politics, economy, and culture.
Among the Northeast Asian cities which will play a key role
in the 21st century, the so-called Pacific Era, Seoul
is situated at the crossroads of two geopolitically very significant
economic axes; it is in the very center of the Korean Peninsula
linking the Pacific region to Eurasia, and the center of the
strategic belt of Japan, Korea and China across the Yellow Sea.
As the center of the BESETO (Beijing-Seoul-Tokyo) economic belt,
Seoul will surely make major contributions to the economic development
of Northeast Asia in the 21st century. |
