Haebangchon

Haebangchon (Hangul: 해방촌 Hanja: 解放村)(Haebang - meaning: freedom or liberation, and Chon - meaning: village) is a district of Yongsan-gu, in Seoul, South Korea. The neighborhood's close proximity to Itaewon and the Yongsan Garrison US Army facility has made the area popular for expat residents. In recent years, the area has become a haven for English language teachers from a variety of English speaking nations. The neighbourhood is also home to a significant Filipino, Nigerian, and to a lesser extent, Russian community.
