	Dongdaemun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Korean name "Dongdaemun" means "Great East Gate," and it was so named because it was the major eastern gate in the wall that surrounded Seoul during the Joseon Dynasty.
		The structure was first built by King Taejo during his fifth year of reign (1396).
		It was renovated in 1453, and the current structure is the one rebuilt in 1869.

	Encyclopedia: Dongdaemun
		Dongdaemun —more properly known as Heunginjimun (홍인지문, 興仁之門)—is a prominent landmark in central Seoul, South Korea.
		Dongdaemun is the younger, hippier cousin to Namdaemun ("Great South Gate"), another much-touted wholesale shopping area in Seoul, though not much to my liking.
		There's also a Dongdaemun Station nearby, but the Dongdaemun Stadium Station is more convenient to where we want to go.

		We were staying at the Best Western in Dongdaemun, which you would do wise to avoid.
		It was just shitty, with tiny rooms, and no A/C and heating and TV's that turned themselves on full blast in the middle of the night...even after you may have turned the volume all the way down and press the mute button just to be safe, the second night, before going to bed.
		Our hotel was on the street, right in front of Dongdaemun, one of the two, large city gates.
