I look forward to seeing you soon vs i am looking forward to see you soon

The correct phrase is 'I look forward to seeing you soon.' The use of 'look forward to' is followed by a gerund (verb + ing) form, not the base form of the verb. The phrase 'I am looking forward to see you soon' is using the verb's base form, which is contextually incorrect.
