A Natural Backdrop?

Before arriving in Seoul, I expected that the APT would be the most dominant thing as you walk around the city, but I did not anticipate their continual presence in the background. From the dormitory, the kitchen or the studio, the APT can always be seen, somewhere in the distance. In plan, the APT seem distinct, homogenous zones of aggressive planned landscape, but it seems as natural to see their profile on the horizon line as that of the mountains that surround the city.
