USAG Yongsan is located in the heart of Seoul, Korea, a city of 16 million. The city is a unique combination of the ultra-modern and the ancient, with a diverse history of foreign occupation, war, and reconstruction.

The installation dates back to the Japanese occupation of Korea, and still has some of the original buildings in use.

In direct contrast, Yongsan has some of the most modern facilities in all the Armed Forces.
