Sebitseom (Korean: 세빛섬), name stylized as Some Sevit[1] and sometimes known as the Sebit islets , are artificial islands in the Han River in Seoul, South Korea.[2][3] It is the world's first floating structure built on a buoy that can stay afloat on water.[4] It was built at the suggestion of Kim Eun-sung (citizen of Seoul) in 2006. Seoul made this island by Build-Transfer-Operate (BTO). It has 3 islands: Gavit (가빛; gabit), Chavit (채빛; chebit), and Solvit (솔빛; solbit). Yevit is part of Sebitseom, but is not an island itself, but rather, it's an on-land multimedia art gallery complementing the three floating islands.
