(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Im Hwa-seop = Regarding the design change of the Global Business Center (GBC), which Hyundai Motor plans to build in Samseong-dong, Seoul, Gangnam-gu Mayor Jeong Soon-gyun “must be carried out according to the original plan” and officially held an interview with Hyundai Motor Chairman Eui-sun Eui-sun He said on the 25th that he had requested.
In a public post posted on Facebook this evening, Mayor Jeong wrote, “I made an official request for a meeting with Hyundai Motor Company Chairman Eui-seon Eui-seon today to urge the promotion of the original draft on the 105th floor.”
The GBC, which Hyundai Motor Group decided to build at the former KEPCO site in Samseong-dong, is planned to be 569m high, and if it is planned, it will be the tallest building in Korea. Currently, the highest building in Korea, Lotte World Tower in Sincheon-dong, Songpa-gu, has 123 floors and is 555 meters high.
The city of Seoul gave out GBC’s construction permit in November of last year and a certificate of start of construction in May of last year, respectively, and Hyundai Motor Group is currently undertaking construction.
“If GBC is completed six years later, it will become the tallest building in Korea and become a landmark in Korea.” “It is expected not only as a landmark building, but also creating 1.25 million new jobs and an economic effect of 268 trillion won. It is a large project that contains the wishes of our Gangnam-gu residents who wish for development.”
He said, “But since last November, rumors of a design change to two buildings on the 70th floor and three buildings on the 50th floor have been spreading, and this year, media reports that it is being organized into three buildings on the 50th floor is an absurd situation.” He expressed displeasure in the theory of change.
He said, “If you check with Hyundai Motor in this or that media report, it is a position that’the fact of the design change review is correct, but nothing has been reported or confirmed to the chairman.'” He said, “It is’unplanned’ about the design change (Snow) right after the first report last November. Contrary to the reaction (what was shown), Hyundai Motor Company is now also making design changes as the default.”
“I have doubts about the high-level media play,” said Jeong Gu, regrettable as the mayor of the competent ward.
He said, “Of course, it is common for large-scale construction-related projects to change their design on the way due to company circumstances or other reasons,” he said. If changes are needed, the process must be carried out with pride and transparency,” he stressed.
He repeatedly expressed displeasure at Hyundai Motor’s attitude, saying, “It is not enough to let the local ward office follow the media reports and check the progress.”
