The correct answer is - A. Seoul grew much more rapidly.
Even though both New York and Chicago has had relatively quick growth rate since the 19th century, they can not match the tempo of growth rate of modern Seoul. After the end of the World War II, Seoul's population skyrocketed. Prior to the war, the city had walls around it, and the space for living was not changing, thus the population was relatively stable and with the same size.
