This media shows the cultural heritage monument in South Korea with the number:
Several tombs located just south of Jamsil. These belong to the Baekje Kingdom, which ruled approximately the western half of modern-day South Korea from 18 BC to 660. Baekje's first capital was located in this general area, and there is another tomb complex about a mile to the northeast. These tombs used to be in a state of decay, with the complex bisected by a modern boulevard, as archaeology was an unaffordable luxury until the 1970s. But in the 1980s, excavation and restoration took place, and the boulevard was put through an underground tunnel. Further away I can see the modern developments that mark today's Seoul: a Protestant church, three high-rise condominium buildings, and Hotel Lotte World. Jamsil area would gain dozens more high-rise condominiums over the next few years.
