  • Seoul City Guide
    Seoul City Guide Page | 1 Seoul Seoul (서울) is the capital of South Korea. With a population of over 10.5 million, Seoul is by far South Korea's largest city and one of East Asia's financial and cultural epicenters. Understand With over 10 million people, a figure that doubles if you include neighboring cities and suburbs, Seoul is the largest city in South Korea and unquestionably the economic, political and cultural hub of the country. By some measures it is the second largest urban agglomeration on the planet, after Greater Tokyo. Situated between Shanghai and Tokyo and bordered by the impenetrable Democratic People’s Republic of Korea to the north, the South Korean capital is sometimes overlooked by travelers. However, Seoul is an exciting location in its own right, not to mention cheaper than its rivals and incredibly safe. With beautiful palaces, great food and a shopping nightlife, Seoul is a frenetic way to experience the Asia of old and new. Historically there is evidence for settlement in this area as far as 18 BC but Seoul as the capital city of South Korea has a history back to the 14th century. Originally named Hanseong (한성; 漢城), the city was the capital of the Joseon Dynasty from 1392 to 1910, when Korea was occupied by the Japanese. The Joseon Dynasty built most of Seoul's most recognisable landmarks, including the Five Grand Palaces and Namdaemun. After the Japanese surrender in 1945, the city was re-named to its current name, Seoul. Since the establishment of the Republic of Korea in 1948, Seoul has been the capital of South Korea.

  • Seoul Taxi with Its Own Business Areas 58
    1 2 3 CEO’s message It has been four and a half years since Kakao T Taxi was introduced in March 2015. Since its launch as a consolidated app in October 2017, the Kakao T app has secured 2.3 million subscrib- ers and became an essential service responsible for all Koreans’ travelling. From Taxi, Black, Driv- er, Navi and Parking to a bike sharing service Bike, Kakao T is connecting people’s life in a faster and smarter way in a single app that meets different travel demands of customers. 2019 kakaomobility Report looked into diverse travel patterns of people on an analysis of the mo- bility big data accumulated so far. ‘Who prefers which service when’ was narrowly observed, and alternative measures for better mobility services were identified. Topics that require our partners and the central and local governments to discuss to help people to travel more conveniently were presented. Meanwhile, a variety of high technologies that Kakao Mobility is working on to provide innovative services were introduced. We believe that ranging from detecting the exact location of vehicles and users to optimizing matching rates based on machine learning, continuous technology innova- tion will lay a foundation for keeping the pride of domestic technical companies in an era of global competition. After the taxi industry and platform service providers reached a compromise after years of hard work, ‘Taxi System Reform Measures for Innovative Growth and Collaborative Development’ was announced in July. Limited but diverse mobility services that customers want will be available soon. This is the beginning of mobility innovation in Korea.
