Ever the lazy one, I won't translate more from my essay - in French - on urbanism in Seoul: "Inhuman, all too human Seoul". Atelier des Cahiers published it ("Seoul: inhumaine, trop humaine") ahead of Monday's roundtable on "Seoul Ville Reelle, Ville Revee" (6 PM at Cafe des Arts - see event details on Facebook).

Seoul Village 2012
NEW : follow Seoul Village on Facebook and Twitter
Addendum (plan)
---
Seoul: inhumaine, trop humaine:
Une mégapole, cent villages, mille visages
1) L’industrie du rêve de la ville idéale
- Révolution industrielle du logement : du cycle vertueux à la bulle
- De la grande conso à la mode et aux services, du rêve à la dystopie
2) Une humanité en transition
- Communautés et espaces partagés
- Vie et survie des villages
3) Ville idéale 2.0 et nouvelles utopies
- La fin d’une époque, mais pas encore la fin du rêve immobilier
-De la "ville dure" à la "ville douce"
- De la New Town à l’Human Town, le retour en grâce des villages
Conclusion

Inhuman, all too human Seoul:
One megapolis, a hundred villages, a thousand faces
1)The industry of a dream - the ideal city
- Industrial revolution of housing: from the virtuous cycle to the bubble
- From mass market products to fashion and services, from utopia to dystopia
2) Humans in transit
- Communities and shared spaces
- Life and survival of villages
3) The Ideal City 2.0 and new utopias
- The end of an era, but not yet the end of the real estate dream
- From "hard city" to "soft city"
- From New Town to Human Town, villages are back in favour
