Glistening lights reflected on the Han River. Some Sevit shone brilliantly. This isn’t just any riverside attraction. It’s the world’s first floating structure built on buoys. Imagine three islands glowing under the night sky.
Some Sevit actually consists of four parts. Three are islands Gavit Chavit and Solvit. Yevit is a multimedia art gallery on land. It complements the three floating islands. Each island has a unique theme. Gavit is for performing arts with a performance hall. Chavit focuses on culture with event zones. Solvit offers water leisure activities.
Some Sevit started as a suggestion in 2006. Construction of Yevit finished in 2009. The entire complex opened to the public in 2014. Before the grand opening there were some setbacks. Managerial conflicts almost stopped the project. Millions of dollars were invested. The project faced controversy too. A Fendi fashion show sparked protests from animal rights activists. The show featured fur items. The Seoul government demanded fur’s removal. Fendi responded by reducing fur’s prominence in the show.
Some Sevit’s stunning location has made it a popular filming spot. It appeared in Avengers Age of Ultron. Korean dramas and America’s Next Top Model also filmed there. Some Sevit’s popularity makes it a must-see. It combines culture entertainment and leisure. The islands’ names are meaningful. They represent a flower’s life cycle. Chavit is a flower bud. Solvit is a seed. Gavit is the flower in full bloom.
