In 1976, ‘Jamsil Sports Complex construction plan’ was established, and became a historic branch point. Jamsil was an alluvial island created by the accumulation of sand in the Han River downstream over a long period of time. Since 1976, Tancheon and waterfront of Han River were transformed into the landfill with a flat artificial line and roads were made on the high concrete banks.  In 1988, Seoul Olympic, a historic event throughout 5,000 years of Korean history, was held in Jamsil. The year 1988 was an important branch point of Seoul for becoming an international city, which was another spatial identity of Jamsil in history.

 Through these two historic branch points, the Jamsil Sports Complex area became a symbol of the dynamic development of the capital Seoul. This area is worth as a monument which can provide a blueprint of Seoul as an international city and another historic branch points in the future.
 By Urban Regeneration, Jamsil Sports Complex will be a space of ‘the future remembering the past’, i.e., ‘The rememberable future’. The ‘76 88 --’ plan for this Urban Regeneration of Jamsil Sports Complex area will generate the second ‘Miracle on the Han River’ utilizing the unlimited potential as ‘the international exchange district’, historic monument, waterfront, and recreation area.
