About 14 years ago, while supporting the struggle against the so-called "redevopment" in Eulchiro 2-ga(Samgak, Suha-dong/more info you'll get here), I predicted that the neighboring Euljiro industrial district(EID) will be - sooner or later - the next irretrievable victim of Seoul's increased "redevelopment" mania...
And as you can see here...
...some parts of EID are already destroyed!! But that's just the beginning, because "Euljiro industrial district being torn down to make way for high-rise apartments"(K.Times, 1.09)

The labor union of FineTek, a maker of display equipment, and the management reached a labor deal, while two workers staged a sit-in on top of a smokestack at a power plant for more than a year in protest of layoffs. The unionized workers of FineTek had been waging the protest atop the 75-meter smokestack at a combined heat and power plant in Mok-dong(southwest Seoul) for about 14 months, calling on the management to keep its promise on job security. With the deal, the workers ended the protest Friday. The protest marked the longest sit-in on top of a smokestack in the country's history.(source: Yonhap, 1.11)
JoongAng Ilbo published y'day(1.12) Yonhap's detailed report. You can read it here.
