The Gwanghwamun Square Project aims to transform the area around Gwanghwamun Square in Seoul into a media and advertising hub similar to New York's Times Square. The project involves installing large electronic display boards on nine buildings around the square to create this media hub. The first display board was installed on the Koreana Hotel in April, and a second large display board was installed on the KT Gwanghwamun Building. A third display board is planned for the Donga Media Center in October, with the goal of having all nine locations operational by early next year.
