What does this Hanja say?

Postby DaveKennard » 2010-02-24, 14:16

I took this photo in Seoul, and would be interested to know what the inscription says:
_DSC6727.jpg


I think the inscription reads 銀光빌딩, using google translate, it tells me the hangul says 'building'. I presume the hanja is the name of the building, but I'm not sure.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

Dave

<銀光> reads as <은광> in Hangeul. Basically it means "silver", especially with regard to color. So, <銀光빌딩> means something like "silver building".
