Snippet:
In Seoul’s Gangnam-gu, amid glass towers and the global pulse of K-pop, a 3.5-kilometer boulevard named Tehran-ro runs through the city’s economic core. More than a hub for technology firms and financial institutions, its name reflects a moment when Korea and Iran, both undergoing economic transformation, chose cooperation over distance.
