I looked several times on naver last night for links to other photos, but it seems the article Robert linked to was only posted today (and a great link it is). Don't know why there was a lag (US military photos don't rate highly, maybe?). I posted links to other photos and memorials of the arrival of the American occupation forces (including photos taken by a soldier whose hobby was taking photographs of Seoul's environs and inhabitants in 1945-46) <a href="http://populargusts.blogspot.com/2007/06/post-liberation-photos-of-seoul-and.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>.

FYI, in the foreground, on the north (near) side of Cheonggyecheon, across the street from Dongdaemun, is the Seoul Electric Co.'s (or whatever it was called at the time) streetcar yards.
