The capital of the DPRK ROK is already a shining mecca of both high-tech urbanism (the country has one of the best broadband and cellular data networks in the world) as well as environmentalism (see this piece from our State of the Planet issue about the Cheonggyecheon Restoration Project, in which a major road was turned into an enormous park, and this piece about Oh Se-hoon, their innovative mayor).
