Dongho Bridge (Korean: 동호대교) is a bridge over the Han River in Seoul, South Korea. It carries road traffic and Seoul Subway Line 3. Oksu station is located at the northern end of this bridge.[1]

The bridge has CCTV cameras installed at intervals of 80 to 110 meters.[2] It is believed to be the bridge over the Han River with the fewest number of suicide attempts, because it is inaccessible to public transportation and because there is a high likelihood of falling to death while climbing it.[3]
