The Paik Nam June Media Bridge will measure approximately 1,080 metres, spanning the Han River, and connect the Dang-Li power plant in the north to the National Assembly Building in the south.
Inspired by the agile limbs of the water strider, a surface-gliding insect, the bridge will straddle the river and provide access to both land and water, via pod-shaped boat piers. Water taxis, cruise ships and other water craft will be able to dock in the pods, while the interior will accommodate cars, pedestrians and cyclists. The structure is also planned to function as a ‘mini city’, including shopping malls, a museum, a library and a park.
Planners have also included several environmentally friendly features in the design. The surface of the bridge will be covered by solar panels, allowing the structure to generate its own energy. Each of the floors, including the roof, will feature both horizontal and vertical gardens, drawing on water from the river and rainfall.

这个大桥将连接北岸的Dangi-li发电站和南岸的国民议会大楼,它是一个典型的“城市向河上蔓延”的建筑。与伦敦的泰晤士河和巴黎的塞纳河一样,首尔的汉江也是横跨城市中心,不过它占据的面积更大,影响的范围更宽。目前跨越汉江的大桥有多达30几个,但它们都是钢结构或是混凝土结构。白南准桥将与众不同,它将呈现一种雕塑感,一种未来感和生态绿色概念。它的设计灵感来自于水黾,一种昆虫。桥体结构有机统一,外形光滑,别具流线性。外表覆盖太阳能板,吸收热量,产生能量。
