better than Gangnam!

In case you didn't know Gangbuk basically means North of the Han River, Gangnam means South of the Han River (gang means river). However more commonly it's used to describe the central old area of Seoul that's been settled since 1354 when the city was established(Gangbuk) and the central seriously began to be developed in the 70s previously rice-fields area just the other side of the river(Gangnam).
