‘Fashion has no age’: the stylish senior citizens of Seoul
Kim Dong-hyun spends his days documenting the city’s vibrant senior street style to provide a new perspective on ageing
Pots and pans, piles of shirts and shoes, jewellery-laden tables, and boxes brimming with bric-a-brac. In the tangle of streets near exit 3 of Seoul’s Dongmyo station, hundreds of vendors sell everything from old Instamatic cameras to books, bags and vinyl records.
Located in the South Korean capital’s historic district of Dongdaemun, Dongmyo’s bustling flea market is scattered around a shrine built in honour of an ancient Chinese military commander.

It also serves as a cultural hub for the city’s senior citizens to shop, socialise and show off their unique style.
