Cheonggyecheon
The Cheonggyecheon used to be a naturally formed stream before the Joseon
Dynasty designated Seoul as its capital. It was used for women gathered along the
stream, bringing a load of clothes to wash and cauldrons to boil the clothes, and
children playing in the stream. During the Japanese colonial period, the
Cheonggyecheon went through some changes different from those made in the
past. the Cheonggyecheon was filled up with trash, ground and sand swept from
the bare mountains and severely contaminated with wastes from shabby makeshift
houses built alongside. After the Korean War (1950~1953), even more people
swarmed into Seoul to find their way and make their living and settled down along
the stream. It appeared that the handiest way to put an end to the multitude of
shabby, makeshift houses and the dirty smell was to cover up the stream with
concrete. Finally, the work to cover it up with concrete started as quickly as
possible by August 1958, with the 136m section near Gwangtonggyo completed in
1955 ahead of the remaining sections. In addition, a 5.6 km-long, 16 m-wide
elevated highway extending from Gwanggyo to Majang-dong was completed over
the stream in August 1971 after four working years. Thus, all makeshift houses
along the stream were demolished, freeing the place for some modern commercial
buildings.Then, in the 1980s and 1990s, it came to be regarded as a source of
intense traffic, health and environmental issues. Finaly, Seoul city dicided for recover
the stream and now it becomes an oasis of the city, Seoul.
