The Seoul Citizens Hall, situated on the 1st and 2nd basement levels of Seoul City Hall, serves as a Citizens’ lifestyle courtyard where citizens can create and share together. The hall is designed according to the principles of void’ (emptiness) and flexibility in such a way as to accommodate various types of citizen-oriented activities such as discussions, exhibitions, performances, lectures, and play programs. Its Chinese name uses cheong (聽) meaning ’listening’, rather than cheong (聽), meaning government office to express the idea of a courtyard where citizens’ voices are heard and where ideas and opinions are shared between citizens.
