Our visit to Dong Dae Mun...
On the way to the Omokyo subway stop in Mokdong, we caught a local SBS TV station getting ready to film outside. This Audi SUV was hooked up and ready to be towed away for that "scene in the car while driving". I hope to infiltrate the Korean TV/Movie/Music industry one day. I can pretend to be a tall, dark and handsome looking 6ft 2" Korean (I'm Chinese).
This is apparently a huge Korean TV star:

Look at the crew...it was a pretty limited set I would say. The actress and actor inside the SUV had to dab their own sweat!

Here we are arriving at Dong Dae Mun...this is where there is a sports stadium:

Here is a picture of some people...there are always lots of people here, so you better get used to it:

Here is a picture of a canal where people were swimming and wading in. I think it's part of the Han River.

Here's a bigger picture:

Traffic in Dong Dae Mun...exciting, isn't it?

*Edit*: This is Dong Dae Mun, aka the East Gate (thanks to my fellow readers for notifying me of this; you'd think I would know since I'm LIVING in Seoul, haha):

Would you "Carrefour" (get it?) a side of Hepatitis A with your fruit (yummy in your tummy!)? The fruit is resting on huge slabs of solid ice. Notice the red tin can collecting the melted water run off:
