Olympic Bridge or Grand Olympic Bridge (Korean:올림픽대교) is a bridge over the Han River in Seoul, South Korea. The bridge links the Gwangjin and Songpa districts.

In 2001, a military helicopter, attempting to lower a sculpture onto the top of the bridge, crashed and fell into the Han River, killing all on board.[1] The job was finished later and to this day, the dead are not remembered in any form, plaque or otherwise on the bridge.
