3. I agree.  And judging by the line of cars on the lower right, it must either be an office or museum.

5. I should have recognized that.  I stayed at the Seoul Plaza hotel just down the road back in 02.  I visited the Palace while I was there - an awesome place to see.  The whole city and country are amazing.

6. Hey Jed,

   Did you intentionally crop the photo to cut off the lines of busses parked in the lot thinking that was too big of a clue, or is that just coincidence?

   Also, do you take suggestions for future “guess that locations”

   I was wondering the same thing.

8. I didn’t crop the buses intentionally.  I was only looking at the borders of the complex.

   And yes, I take suggestions.  With the caveat that you can’t guess your own submission, obviously.

   Of course, if you want to post your own unfiltered by me, you can hit the forum.
