Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Byun Chang-heum attended a meeting with the Democratic Party’s pro-Moon Jae-in (Pro-Moon) members of the Democratic 4.0 Research Institute on the 17th. I said. It was a meeting to directly explain to the ruling party lawmakers the direction of the last 2·4 measures, which promised to supply 850,000 houses nationwide.
Minister Byeon presented satellite image data of some areas in downtown Seoul and emphasized the expansion of supply, saying, “It is not that there was no land in Seoul, but there was no adequate means to supply housing. “The sum of the station area, semi-industrial area, idle site, and low-rise area totals more than 90 million pyeong. If this is used well, various high-density houses are possible.” According to the attendees, Minister Byeon explained in detail how to calculate the supply quantity for each type of idle site.
One participant said, “I prepared a number of photos and map materials so I could visually check how the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transport planned the supply.” “According to Minister Byeon, the government is currently most conservatively calculating the size of supply. In the actual development process, it may be possible to supply more housing.”He said.
The government announced that it will finish the announcement of candidate sites by the second quarter for 250,000 new public housing sites included in the 2·4 real estate measures. The photo shows an apartment complex in downtown Seoul as seen from Namsan in Seoul this afternoon. News 1

Minister Byeon emphasized the need to develop semi-industrial areas as residential sites, saying, “It is difficult to operate the manufacturing industry on the expensive land of Seoul now.” Rep. Lee Kwang-jae said in the call, “With Corona 19, the importance of the house has grown. All the participants agreed that not only simply expanding the supply but also improving the quality of housing is the key to making people’s lives happy in the end.”
Regarding the selection of business areas where interest is concentrated, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport has set up a plan to carry out preliminary work during the first half of the year. Minister Byeon said, “We will select a business area by July and announce it within this year.”He said, “The district offices are proposing more than 10 projects, and we will receive them after discussion.”
President Moon Jae-in said on the 16th, “In addition to the current real estate policy, there is a need for a drastic expansion of the housing supply.” It was held the day after I was asked. As the presidential message and timing overlapped, various questions were poured into Minister Byun.

Democrats said they demanded the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport that “we should put more aggressive government finances into real estate” with Lee Gu-dong. Chief Commissioner Kim Jong-min said, “We suggested the need for a public housing loan service that lends 40 years at an annual interest rate of 1%. Apart from the household debt issue, the state gave a proposal to Minister Byun to manage the loan.” In response, Minister Byeon said, “The government will boldly invest the budget in trillions for residential welfare.”
