According to http://english.metro.seoul.kr/about/cityfacts/history.cfm

Seoul has a lot longer history that is here described.

<quote>Baekje Kingdom was founded in 18 B.C. by Onjo, who was believed to be a son of Jumong of Goguryeo, with its capital at Habuk Wirye Castle in the north of the Hangang, but the capital was moved to the south of Hangang four years later. The name "Hanseong" as the capital of Baekje Kingdom was first recorded during the reign of King Biryu. With its capital in Hanseong, Baekje enjoyed its prime time during the reign of King Geunchogo in the mid-fourth century. </quote> Xaos

I've just added a bit on this. Hope it's fine. diwiki 09:26, 22 Sep 2003 (UTC)

Could information on Digital Media City be added to this? --Daniel C. Boyer 23:35, 21 Sep 2003 (UTC)

I have removed/ changed the follwoing information:

With over 10 million registered citizens, the city of Seoul is the most populated single city (excluding greater metropolitan areas) in the world that human civilization has yet known - see Rand McNally (ISBN: 0-528-83872-5).

I have done this, because accoriding to the following page World Gazetteer this is no longer the case. Measuring city size is very complicated and any list produced is contested. I hope the version I produced is good enough. DiruWiki 13:35, 2 Oct 2003 (UTC)
