Seocho District (Korean: 서초구, RR: Seocho-gu) is one of the 25 local government districts which make up the city of Seoul, South Korea. Seocho is a part of the Gangnam region, along with the Gangnam district of Seoul. Seocho District ranks as one of the richest neighborhoods in South Korea and among the most expensive areas in Seoul with an average sales price of 47.75 million South Korean won per 3.3 square meters.[2] Many of the wealthiest residents are concentrated in the three Gangnam districts including Seocho, known as Gangnam School District Eight (강남 8학군).[3]
Seocho District was established by Gangnam District in 1988, yet remains significantly connected to Gangnam and it is itself in terms of administration, geography, society, and economics. The name 'Seocho District' itself is derived from Seocho-dong, where Gangnam Station is located, which was originally under Gangnam District's jurisdiction. Consequently, the term 'Gangnam' is essentially shared between Gangnam District and Seocho District. Key commercial areas of the Gangnam downtown district, particularly around major subway stations such as Sinsa Station, Nonhyeon Station, and Sinnonhyeon Station, are physically indistinct from Gangnam District and are entirely managed by Seocho District.[4] Seocho District is served by the Seoul Subway Line 2, Line 3, Line 4, Line 7, Line 9, and Shinbundang Line. South Korea's longest highway, Gyeongbu Expressway, also ends in Seocho.[5] The most crowded area in Korea, Gangnam-daero Gangnam Station, is located in this District.[5]
