Looks like Lotte World Busan isn't going to be the tallest building in this area. The landmark building seems to be having 120 floors.

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Look at Busan's new skyline. That is great! Where did you get the pics Dhwuman?

this building will has no friends

this building will has no friends

I know what you mean :rofl:

but a great skyline has to start somewhere

hope S.Korean population can distribute average in whole S.Korea.
and not 1/4 of population gathered in Seoul, Busan can be the 2nd City which have over 10m population and the "capital" of southen S.korea

Being a Port City with scenic beach front, I always thought Busan had more of a potential than Seoul.

Wow, this is great for Busan!

I wonder, though, if Busan has the population to support such a huge project.

What is the significance of the colors: yellow, red and blue; in Korean culture? :?

These three colors happen to be the most popular color-scheme in South Korea, imho, since they are found in roll-up doors as well as some construction projects including the proposed Lotte World Busan.

According to news articles released yesterday(29th), the tower has been redesigned from 464m to 510m and just received construction approval from the city government. The construction of the tower itself, however, won't start until late 2007 or early 2008. Construction of the surrounding buildings, such as the department store and entertainment complex, will be finished by 2008. Also, they're considering "cheating" their way up the skyscraper rankings by building a spire.

good to know,thank you for the info....another 500m tower, great :)

I would think once the Lotte tower is completed other tall skyscrapers will start popping up all around Busan... so the tower won't look like out of place and singled-out. Can't wait to see Busan in the next twenty years XD!

I already adapt myself to the singled-out in Taipei:lol:
, and actually it doesn't look that bad, so I think Busan will be great:)
