This stadium was designed to harmoniously connect the natural environment and energies of Mt. Munhak, and to become the center of the green network. The flow of green space was linearly arranged, with the stadium in-between the flows. First, the hockey stadium, comprised of two stadiums, was placed at the frontal plaza of the site for ease of approach, and the roof and grass were also used to express the two stadiums as a single integrated stadium. For the external area, the metal fabric and patterned glass were appropriately mixed, with dynamic patterns used to express the dynamic nature of the games. For the judo/wrestling gymnasium, the green space was connected via the roof to make it seem like part of the landscape rather than a building
