Hammocks Tied to Trees in Cheonggyecheon Spark Criticism

Did citizens recently witness another unpleasant sight at Cheonggyecheon Stream, with someone installing something absurd on a tree?

Yes, it is the installation of a hammock.

Recently, a video has been spreading online showing people resting in a hammock set up between street trees along Cheonggyecheon Stream.

In the video, a man and a woman, who appear to be foreigners, are seen tying a hammock to the street trees and relaxing.

Some citizens were also captured passing by and looking uncomfortable.

Current ordinances do not include regulations that directly prohibit setting up hammocks.

However, people can be stopped on-site if they damage trees or facilities, or obstruct the use of walkways.

Netizens reacted with comments such as, "The trees could be damaged," and "Will tents end up appearing next?"
