Despite rumblings from its neighbor to the north, South Korea is gearing up to host the winter Olympics in Pyeongchang this February, and a massive push for development throughout the country is accompanying the games. Case in point: In Seoul, the recently opened Lotte World Tower—the world’s fifth tallest building—is home to the ultra-luxe Signiel Seoul (a member of Leading Hotels of the World) and South Korea’s largest luxury department store, and the Seoul Station Overpass has been converted into an elevated park inspired by New York’s High Line called Seoullo 7017. Meanwhile, the volcanic island of Jeju (pictured) will welcome a Four Seasons resort in the upcoming Jeju Shinhwa World complex later this year.
