About
Sebitseom in Korean, is officially known as Some Sevit and sometimes known as the Sebit islets, are artificial islands in the Han River in Seoul, South Korea. It is the world's first floating structure built on a buoy that can stay afloat on water. It was built at the suggestion of Kim Eun-sung (citizen of Seoul) in 2006. Seoul made this island by Build-Transfer-Operate (BTO). It has 3 islands: Gavit (gabit), Chavit (chebit), and Solvit (solbit). Yevit is part of Sebitseom, but is not an island itself, but rather, it's an on-land multimedia art gallery complementing the three floating islands.
