Hello, everyone. I'm Seoul Walker. 🚶🏻🚶🏻‍♀️🐈
Seorae Village is a district of Seoul, on Banpo 4-dong, Seocho-gu. It begins at Seorae-ro by Sapyeong-ro, which is located on the southern end of Banpo-daegyo bridge. The name of French Village comes from the fact that about two hundred French people live there. There is not much difference between this village and a common Korean villages because it does not have exotic French style buildings or signboards.

The 300 meter street from Seorae-ro to Bangbae middle school at the end of the hill is paved with three colors blocks (red, white, and blue) to symbolize the national flag of France. Visitors can see signs where French is written with Korean script, such as Attention Ecole (Attention School), Hopital ste-Marie (St. Mary's Hospital) and the signboards of "Le Seine" or "Le Ciel" with the street name of "Montmartre."

The village began to form here in 1985 with the moving of L'Ecole Francaise de Seoul formerly located in Hannam-dong to the area. Next, French people started to gather around the school.

Since the 1990s, as more French corporations including Carrefour, TGV, and Renault have advanced into Korea, Seorae Village became animated gradually, and developed as a tourist attraction for French people in Korea. The Seocho-gu government announced that they will create access to Seorae Village as a specialized street where French style culture coexists with businesses. Therefore, the French Village is expected to be reborn as the cultural landmark of Seocho-gu.
