I don’t think it really occurred to me how fast that happened:

Seoul today is one of the densest cities in the world. It has millions of cars but also an excellent subway system.

They’re vibrant with commerce and crowded with pedestrians, each of whom has a carbon footprint less than half the size of a New Yorker’s. Life has gotten much better for Koreans as the country has gone from 28 percent urban in 1961 to 83 percent today. Life expectancy has increased from 51 years to 79—a year longer than for Americans.
