About Ansan

Ansancheon1 - Ansan River (Ansancheon) in Hosu Park

Ansan is a mid-sized city located on the outskirts of Seoul. It is well integrated with Seoul's transport system and generally speaking can be considered as a suburb. The city was planned by Park Chung-hee in 1970 and is an important industrial center.

Ansan has one of Korea's largest immigrant communities. The percentage of multi-cultural families here is the highest in South Korea, although it is less known than Itaewon among English-speaking foreigners, as most immigrants here are Chinese and other Asian blue collar workers.
