Updated: Sep 13, 2023

In the vibrant heart of Seoul, where modernity meets tradition with a harmonious clasp, thousands find a unique way to celebrate and immortalize their love. At the prominent N Seoul Tower, poised gracefully on Mt. Namsan, love locks have become an emblem of steadfast commitment and endearing affection between couples from all walks of life.


A Landscape of Love

As you ascend to the roof terrace of N Seoul Tower, a splendid view unfolds before you — a mesmerizing sight of countless padlocks, inscribed with names, affectionate words, and promises of forever. This canvas of love tells stories of relationships at various junctures, a vivid testimony to love’s kaleidoscope of colors that shine even brighter with Seoul’s cityscape as the backdrop.

There are locks that speak of youthful fervor, pledges of matured unions, and even renewed vows of love rediscovered. As your eyes dance across the ocean of metallic emblems, it's as though you can feel the pulsating heartbeat of every love story that has found its witness here.


Choosing Our Spot

In this crowd of unyielding proclamations, we searched for our little corner, a special spot that would hold the symbol of our love. The very act of choosing the perfect spot felt sacred, as if we were selecting the ground on which the seeds of our affection would flourish endlessly.

After a heartfelt search, we found our beautiful little enclave along the terrace railing—a place where our love lock would echo with the whispers of the winds, absorbing the vibrant energy from the thriving city below while enjoying the tranquil oversight of the heavens above.


Our Message of Forever

The love lock we chose bore our names, a simple yet profound testimony to our journey together. As we etched words of affection onto the metallic canvas, we felt a surge of emotions, a mingling of joy, anticipation, and a profound sense of connection. It was as if with every stroke, we were reaffirming our pledge to stand by each other, come what may.

We looked at each other, smiles widening, eyes sparkling with a twinkle of forever as we clasped the lock, sealing our promise in a place where love finds both its witness and testament.


A Unity with Others


As we attached our love lock amongst thousands of others, it felt as if we were joining a vast community of lovers who had chosen to celebrate their bond in this unique and artistic manner. A silent yet vibrant fraternity of love stories, each lock adding weight and substance to the collective testimony of love’s unyielding power.

Each lock here tells a story, an adventure of love; of people coming together from different backgrounds, each embarking on a journey of togetherness. It's not just a celebration of romantic relationships but a grand mosaic of affection showcasing familial bonds, friendships, and even individual paths of self-love.


Eternal Witnesses

And as we stood there, hand in hand, we realized that these locks were more than mere symbols. They were a living, breathing entity, etching moments of love into the very fabric of time, becoming eternal witnesses to the depth and beautiful complexity of human affection.


At that moment, surrounded by a vibrant symphony of locks, each resounding with tales of love, we could feel a transcendental connection to a tradition larger than us, to a force more potent than anything, the beautiful, invincible force of love.


In this sacred space, where love met artistry, and promises were etched in metal, we found a small yet powerful way to shout our love from the rooftop to the world. As we kissed, sealing our pledge, we couldn't help but feel a part of something beautiful, our love now forever a part of Seoul's vibrant landscape of affection, eternally locked in the heart of South Korea’s pulsating metropolis.
