If you live in Seoul, what part of the city do you live in? Do you like where you live? What don't you like about your neighborhood?

은평구 연신내 I like it it's on the 3 and 6 line, I'm 20 minutes from City Hall, and ten minutes from being completely out of Seoul if I want to get out for the weekend.

It's a good location.

Where have you been, man? Haven't seen you in ages.

I do not live anywhere near Seoul.

Dongdaemun, north of the river.

It's okay... quite run-down, but a short subway ride to downtown and most fun areas. Probably not the best area to live though.

Yeah he missed like 80% of the city.

Why does Nowon-gu get its own listing but most of the other gus don't? Are there loads of foreigners in Nowon or something? If so, why? Is Nowon-gu a cool place or something? I've never been there..

Jungnang-gu. Seoul's forgotten zone. Even some taxi drivers have to think twice where Jungnang-gu is.

It has vastly improved though, since they sorted out the annual flooding and typhoid.

I don't know, for some reason, I was under the impression that there was a sizeable foreign teacher population in Nowon-gu. Yeah, I guess I could've had better poll options. My bad.
