[edit] Jongno 6ga-dong

i'm really getting confused by this "ga" business. What does that mean exactly? Anyway, I would consider relinking it to the proper dong, but i'm not sure exactly which dong that will be in the end since the list on the Jongno-gu page separates them kind of strangely. User:Appletrees knows best. I'll be patient I guess. DaronDierkes (talk) 03:52, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

"Ga" (wikt:街) is a transliterated term to refer to "street" or "avenue" in Korean. Until stubbing the dong in Seoul, I had never cared about differentiating the dongs with "ga"in Gangbuk area (areas surrounding Jongno-gu and Jung-gu which is the counterpart of Gangnam area including not only Gangnam-gu, but also Seocho-gu, Songpa-gu which has no "ga" in their name). --Appletrees (talk) 04:21, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
So what should the location link be on this page? Jongno 6ga-dong is kind of a vague link. DaronDierkes (talk) 05:27, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
