Chang-dong station

Chang-dong Station is a station on Seoul Subway Line 1 and Line 4. It is located in Chang-dong, Dobong-gu, Seoul. A shopping center was planned for this site, but the empty lot has never been developed due to the bankruptcy of the contractor behind said project. The station is, however, home to a cluster of pojangmacha stalls.
