Developing bidirectional urban networks within areas in megacities is an essential spatial strategy across regions today. In 2018, Korea began its Bu-Ul-Gyeong (BUG) megacity project. Today, working to improve functional polycentric the BUG megacity. To uncover insights useful for this project, study sought examine network patterns (e.g., asymmetries and imbalances sizes directions of their wei...
