Seoul faced significant destruction during the Korean War (1950-1953), as it was the site of intense military conflict between North and South Korea. The city changed hands multiple times, leading to widespread devastation from bombings and ground battles. Additionally, urban development and industrialization in the following decades transformed parts of the city, but the war's impact left a lasting mark on its infrastructure and population. Today, Seoul has rebuilt and evolved into a vibrant metropolis.
