For my latest Korea Times article I look at how Sindang-dong's gentrification has proceeded (or receded) over the past couple of years, since I wrote this earlier article. As today's article notes, I'll be leading a walk around the area for RAS Korea this Saturday.
For greater detail than what is listed in the article, here are the numbers for the trendy businesses that have opened around Sindang Station / Central Market over the years.
The area has seen its fair share of changes since I moved here eight years ago, but its identity remains intact, which is not always possible when gentrification comes knocking.
