Thank you, but i already have found out, that this song was written by Sigur Rós from Iceland. It is called "njósnavélin / the nothing song" and you can download it on Sigur Ròs' Homepage under "Media"
In my Opinion New Sondo City ist a very interesting project. It fascinated me so much that I hold a speech about it. This video is a nice overview over this city project. Does anybody know the Song in this video?
It is for ambassador's and business men's child not only for european, american, and all the foreigners but also Korean business men's family as well. it is a international city like Dubai.
DUBAI IN KOREA ? maybe i /form the usa i like the idea but it looks a little blanid compared to to dubai. but it is still cool. is the city eco friendly
The average condo in Songdo is reported in Wikipedia to cost USD 500,000, with many going for two or three times that amount. Songdo is effectively a super high-income enclave for the very wealthy. It doesn't need a gate: exclusion from the network will be its own deterrent to entering into this very selective community. Building dozens of such ghettos for the very rich in and around cities where most of the people are grateful just to get by is disturbing and a formula for revolution.
hanseo, I think its the school you went that had an problem lol, i have lots of friend in international schools but they are doing finee, except some like kent.
there is a village called 'English Village' or 'yung-uh ma-uel' which is for korean people to visit and act like they are in foreign country so that they can learn english better.
its a town of british, american and other european people to come and work as a english teacher. if koreans are not open about other cultures why would we learn/build about something that is other culture?
What are you talking about? Foreigners don't belong in Korea?! Globalization is here to stay no matter if you like it or not. Plus the irony of it all is that you live in the States- Korean pride? Anyway this city is sweet and it will obviously be open to everyone
I think this project was a mistake, not least because of the current economic situation. The money should have been spent on building projects in Incheon-Seoul. I've walked around Songdo and, whilst admittedly it's just a construction site, even when it's finished I think it's going to feel hollow and lacking atmosphere. It's not compact enough. Korea is good at marketing itself to the world as if it is neck-and-neck with Japan, but don't believe it!
ever been to Dubai? It's weird when I first got there and saw the mass transit train stops ending, leading and going to no where. It's dessert. Just sand and miles of sand. Absolutely no where! Holy cow. Can't help but feel that there's over-investment and wastage of investment in Dubai.
Viva Corea! pero Colombia! en qué? si no tiene ninguna planeación para sus ciudades. Posiblemente Medellín, pero aún así es un ejemplo inferior frente a un proyecto serio como Songdo.
$25 billion = lots of debt and interest payments = many people working jobs just because they have to -more of the same steel and concrete which = debt and pollution yet sold as "green". Djenne is a 2,000 year old city built without using fossil fuels which incorporates a joyous, festive process in its construction. google Djenne mud fest, and cob, and Fujian Tulou and Taos Pueblo and watch "First Earth"
Make your utopy but please.. than that will be a happy place socially and ecologically sustainable.. if it isn't plained to be on that way, then it's not future...
Yes. I'm from 2023 and this became reality. Even Battlefield 2042 took this place as map. Such a mindblowing city
awesome.... im visiting korea this upcoming december and im surely visitng that site for 1st place. i cant wait to see this huge project compelete
Amazing project... a new era in the world...

So cool, a huge step for the appearing of organized, high tech, and sustentable cities, just like New songdo
increible el desarrollo de corea del sur es un gran ejemplo para que nosotros tambien lo hagamos-viva corea y Colombia!
Amazing, I love the big open spaces and the canal. I just hope the Koreans thought about how suseptible reclaimed land is to Earthquakes.
DUBAI IN KOREA ? maybe i /form the usa i like the idea but it looks a little blanid compared to to dubai. but it is still cool.

Damn you really commented 12 years ago!
this city is actually called songdo "international" city,
there is a village called 'English Village' or 'yung-uh ma-uel' which is for korean people to visit and act like they are in foreign country so that they can learn english better.
is this where they will host the Asian games?
muito show... simplesmente a cidade mais legal e bonita q existirá
já estou ate arrumando as malas hahahahahahaha
@baddudland Dubai is in Asia- the Middle East.
its beautiful ! but everything is so spaced out...
i will be there, count me in.
I want to live next to Hyoyeon!
This seems really nice, but everything looks the same. Won't that get a little boring?
its a town of british, american and other european people to come and work as a english teacher. if koreans are not open about other cultures why would we learn/build about something that is other culture?
@wildetaube Haven't much to say, do you?

public space as a background of our life ......that's what we want....... don't we?

Holy cow. Can't help but feel that there's over-investment and wastage of investment in Dubai.
what, Korea is not racist, Japan might be closed off to foreigners but KOreans are open to them. and we already have english towns
o que é isso é um jogo
한국적인걸 만들자 하는데.. 여기가 단순한 관광지도 아니고 세계에서 비지니스를 하게 오게 만들려고 하니까 최대한 외국인에 맞춰서 만들려고 그러는데 뭐 그게 문제인가?? 그나저나 송도 죽이네ㅎ

그저 캘리포니아에 해변가에 위치한 어느 도시를 보는듯한 이 모습.. 그저 다른점이라곤 약간더 첨단이고 세련된것.. 진정한 세계화란 받아들이는것을 자기것으로 승화시켜 우리의 것으로 만드는거다 정신차리자
korea rep so much better then arab dubai
im here just want to check out my future penthouse that i want to purchase.,,. :P
Hyoyeon wait for me ..we will be a neighbor..!!! :D
Jonsi.
Looks like an amazing city. Well done S. Korea, and take that Kim Jong Il, with your hideous unfinished pyramid haha.
Looks great if you want to live in a managed society with no privacy...thanks to RFID technology.
easy, learn korean.
