I think its great you want to contribute but I think this thread needs to be moved to the Korean Forum or deleted. The Korean Forum already has the U/C thread for Seoul and in the Cityscapes Forum, there is a Seoul City Life thread that has been very active and has numerous images of Seoul. In the future, lets check first before posting as repetitive threads are not very attractive in a forum. For ultimate Seoul pics, of if you wish to post recent pics, please check out:

I lived there for two years and I know Seoul's skyscrapers are spread all over the city- and that's why Seoul doesn't seem to have one significant skyline.
They have 3~4 big skyscraper clusters in the city. Each of them is about the size of Downtown Toronto, and I think they will merge at some point in the future and create a mega skyline.
This thing is happening in Tokyo as well.

^^ As you know CBD LIMITED BY height zone law which mean can't construct over 150m. According to the korea Cultural Properties Protection Law CBD can not construct huge building.(like paris) So in the CBD There is no skyscraper like Newyork.

Also not only CBD but also SEOUL ALL AREA limited by SUDOGUN-BYOZON-BUB(Seoul capital area regulation law) which mean seoul can not make huge project.

So in seoul didn't allow to make univercity/foreign company/major company ect all limited by regulaion.
As far as I know only Seoul korea have capital limited regulation(Hongkong/Tokyo/Singgapore have no limited). Very unreasonable regulation.

But sooner or later you can see huge building zone in seoul.

Dreamhub(youngsan) Dreamhub will be one significant skyline OF SEOUL

Guys, I know that this section is international section.

So please allow me to say in Korean to thread starter, inno4321, just for a moment. I am deeply sorry.

inno4321님,
Brianmoon85님 말씀대로 이미 Seoul city life라는 mossoda님이 만드신 thread가 있는데 비슷 비슷한 사진들을 또 따로 thread를 만드시는 건 별로 좋지 않는 것 같습니다. Seoul city life도 포스트하는 사람말고 가끔식 외국인들이 코멘트 하고는 곧 뒷장으로 사라지는데 꼭 비슷 비슷한 thread를 만들어 외국인들에게 식상한 느낌을 줄 필요가 있을까요? 님의 정열은 충분히 감사하고 이해가 가지만 다른 도시라면 몰라도 서울 하나로 비슷비슷한 thread는 안만들었으면 좋겠습니다.

그리고 맨위에 간단히 인터넷에서 퍼왔다고 했는데 여기 포럼 규칙에서는 사진을 포스트할때는 꼭 출처를 밝혀여야 합니다. 인터넷에서 퍼왔다면 어떤 사이트에서 사진을 가져왔는지를 밝히셔야 합니다. 맨위에 고정되어 있는 규칙을 꼭 읽어보세요!

Please credit your photos if you post them in the Cityscapes/Skylines section.
이런 내용의 경고가 있는 규칙을 자세히 설명해 줄 것입니다.

As far as I know, Tokyo also has building height restriction.
It's because Haneda International Airport(羽田空港/ 東京国際空港) is very close to their downtowns.

And I think the height restriction in Seoul's CBD is reasonable because there are very old and historic palaces and some architecture around there. Personally, I think they shouldn't have built their CBD in the Jung-ku/Jongro(鍾路區) Area.
Seoul has other two large downtowns in Yeoido(汝矣島) and Gangnam(江南) area, which actually have nicer geography with more space and without obstacles. So I think it would make more sense if they build 600m+ there.
