====South Korea==== [[Insadong]] in [[Seoul]], [[South Korea]] has a large pedestrian zone (''Insadong-gil'') during certain hours.{{citation needed|date=December 2022}} Also in South Korea, in 2013, in the Haenggun-dong neighbourhood of [[Suwon]], streets were closed to cars as a month-long car-free experiment while the city hosted the [[EcoMobility]] World Festival. Instead of cars, residents used non-motorized vehicles provided by the festival organizers.<ref>{{cite news|last=Strother|first=Jason|title=Locals applaud car-free month in Korean city|url=http://www.dw.de/locals-applaud-car-free-month-in-korean-city/a-17124711|access-date=13 December 2013|newspaper=Deutsche Welle|date=30 September 2013}}</ref> The experiment was not unopposed; however, on balance it was considered a success. Following the festival, the city embarked on discussions about adopting the practice on a permanent basis.<ref>{{cite web|title=Report presents legacy of car-free neighborhood|url=http://www.ecomobilityfestival.org/news/latest-news/news-details/?tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=163&cHash=38b110b629bddf1219875eed8af8b5b1|work=EcoMobility world Festival 2013|publisher=ICLEI|access-date=13 December 2013|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131213183858/http://www.ecomobilityfestival.org/news/latest-news/news-details/?tx_ttnews%5Btt_news%5D=163&cHash=38b110b629bddf1219875eed8af8b5b1|archive-date=13 December 2013|url-status=dead}}</ref>
