Sangyong Cho MLA ’14, DDes ’23 Led Travel Studio in Ulsan City
Sangyong Cho MLA ’14, DDes ’23 led a travel studio in Ulsan City, South Korea, titled The Industrial Urbanism Studio in March 2025. Cho traveled with eleven students from the School of Planning at the University of Cincinnati, representing the BUP, BArch, MLA, and PhD Engineering programs. The studio included site visits to major industrial facilities in Ulsan, such as Hyundai, and provided a valuable opportunity to engage with researchers from the University of Ulsan. The goal of the studio was to reimagine Ulsan’s alternative futures at the intersection of sustainability and resiliency through the lenses of landscape architecture, urban design, architecture, engineering, and planning.
In Spring 2017, Sangyong Cho curated the exhibition ULSAN REMADE: Manufacturing the Modern Industrial City with Niall Kirkwood, Charles Eliot Professor of Landscape Architecture. The exhibition showcased work from the GSD Spring 2017 Landscape Architecture option studio of the same name.
