"Ongoing efforts to enhance the self-sustainability and biodiversity of the Han
River ecosystem are yielding substantial results, the Seoul Metropolitan
Government said Monday.

The city's initiatives have led to a significant recovery of the ecosystem
surrounding the river, reflecting a commitment to environmental restoration and
sustainability.

A 49.5-kilometer-long natural embankment has been established along the river,
aimed at preventing erosion and restoring nearly 86 percent of designated areas
to their natural state. This initiative is part of the city's commitment to
ecological restoration.

Since 2007, the number of trees along the Han River has doubled, with the total
now reaching 3.65 million. Additionally, the diversity of species in the area
has surged by nearly 30 percent, reflecting a healthier ecosystem."
