Design and lifestyle flourish in Seoul, thanks to the hard working souls here and the support from the government.  It is probably only my 5th visit here but I'm falling in love with this place even more.  Prices are a lot more reasonable than Tokyo, designs are getting better and better, people react fast to changes.  Seoul is simply full of energy.  I've taken a fresh look at the Myeong-Dong (明洞) area today again and realized it is actually a pretty mix of Shibuya + Harajuku + Ginza!  Absolutely stunning.  Here's a blast of what is only 1% of what I've seen in the last 3 days.
