In 1890
In 1904-6
In 1906-7

Next, a YouTube (maybe from YTN) of the fire itself
Some spectacular stills of the fire are on pwalks’ flickr page (HT to Seoul Man for the link). In fact pwalks has a load of excellent photos of Korea.

And one or two of my own snaps, taken on 15 February, five days after the fire.
