History
According to the Seoul Hangang Office, facilities in the Ttukseom section of Hangang Citizens' Park were used around the opening of the 1988 Seoul Olympics. In 1989, it became the first Hangang park to open an outdoor swimming pool. The Hangang Renaissance 1.0 project later brought a change of name to Ttukseom Hangang Park and changes to the park's layout.
