‘Urban lighting’, which was once thought of as simply a night view of the city, plays an important role in modern society by making cities safer and improving the quality of life for citizens. Together with LUCI, we will do our best to fulfil Seoul’s role as a hub city in Asia, raise its status, and create a liveable city through urban lighting.

Urban lighting in Seoul Metropolitan Government

In 2018, Seoul Metropolitan Government established the 2030 Seoul Urban Light Master Plan to provide a consistent management plan for spatial, decoration, and advertising lighting.

With the vision of being ‘a city of light created by citizens,’ Seoul established three goals to create a beautiful nightscape that considers citizens as the principle agent of light, urban space as the target of light, and light infrastructure as the system of light.

  • Number of lighting points: 649 446
