Updated, substantive editing; will cut down repeated elements in the next edit and clarify this complicated subject to focus more on individual buildings and architects. Urban architecture in Seoul looks as if it needs devolve another entry; as Busan and perhaps other cities. There might as well be a requirement for an entry on Sports architecture to be generated.

[edit] Multicolored 'Day Glo' Stripes In Korean Temples Shrines and Elsewhere
This is a very obvious Korean architectural detail. McDogm
[edit] The Influence of Frank Lloyd Wright In Ordinary Architecture
It is as though Koreans decided that FLW was really good, and made a lot of good looking apartment buildings that emulated that style. Korean American Ska music in Southern California and Manhattan Fruit Stands follow a similar template. I suppose it is a 'template' template. It is a very good method that is easy to adapt to one's life; is there a Korean word for it?McDogm Dated Apr 28 2005 0318 est usa
[edit] Early Architecture
Is there any way we can get more information about pre-1900 architecture in Korea. There is plenty of stuff on post-Soviet and post-World War II and a lot of referencing to earlier sytles, but no mention of what these earlier styles are. --Kerowyn 10:05, 1 May 2005 (UTC)
- Chief editor is working on it; we have been getting information in on Korean swords, and Korean flower arrangement, and Righteous army movements; expected to get more information on architecture over the next while, and add more on earlier times. Sorry for the delay. I will be filling in Goryeo temple architecture next, and related information to Japanese temple architecture originated by Koreans; and as well the Confucian styles. It's a very big subject, and the initial thrust was to talk about the new wave of atelier architects, and then go retrograde. Thanks for the encouragement.

[edit] Tagged Section's Title
Please clean it up. The ==Sports architecture: transition to a Korean style== is against wikipedian style. What kind of title is that.100110100 01:06, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Korean castles
I see no mention in this article of Korean castles or fortresses. Certainly they existed, and certainly many are still extant, no? Wikipedia:WikiProject Castles has recently come into existence, and could use the help of experts on Korea to expand Wikipedia's coverage of castles and fortresses around the world. Thank you.
