BTW it's "Yi Sun-sin". You have a 'h' where none belongs.

Video of the soon to be completed Yi Sun-sin Bridge in South Korea. This suspension bridge has been ducking the news, despite having a mainspan of 5,069 feet - the world's 4th longest mainspan. Its three span total of 7,415 feet will eclipse by 15 feet the Mackinac's 7,400, taking its 3rd position in that category. The video dates to this past August and starts off for the first couple minutes showing the bridge overall from the shoreline, followed by a half minute up on the bridge. The next ten minutes are pretty dry with coverage of expansion joint installation. The last minute contains more walking over of the bridge and views from ground level below the bridge. The wind may be annoying, as well as lack of image stabilization during the walking parts. The sweeping back and forth at times is tedious, but take note of how slender the deck is. The deck is a streamlined twin steel box that is only 10 feet deep, making for a deck depth to span ratio of 1:506! Galloping Gertie's was 1:350. I know of no other motor vehicle bridge with a deck as slender.
