The districts of Seoul are the twenty-five ''Administrative divisions of South Korea#Gu (District), gu'' ("districts"; hangeul: 구; hanja: 區) comprising Seoul, South Korea. The ''gu'' vary greatly in area (from 10 to 47 km2) and population (from less than 140,000 to 630,000). Songpa-gu is the most populated, while Seocho-gu has the largest area. Gu are similar to London's or New York City, New York's boroughs or Tokyo's Special Wards of Tokyo, 23 special wards. Each gu's government handles many of the functions that are handled by city governments in other jurisdictions.
