Bucheon Video Culture Complex Development Gains Momentum, Dreaming of a 'Content Hub'

[Asia Economy Reporter Onyu Lim] The large-scale development project 'Bucheon Video Culture Complex' in Bucheon City, Gyeonggi Province, is gaining momentum.

The GS Construction consortium recently announced on the 10th that it has reached a final agreement with Bucheon City to reduce the scale of apartment construction within the Bucheon Video Culture Complex and plans to sign a business agreement by the end of this month.

The GS Construction consortium explained that with this agreement, the residential area ratio within the complex has been significantly reduced from the original 38% to 29.7%. Additionally, they agreed to ▲convert one block of residential land to industrial land, ▲attract Hollywood content companies, ▲establish a convergence center and video content enterprise complex, and ▲develop a 70-story hotel and convention center.

The Bucheon Video Culture Complex is a project to develop a 'global video culture and content hub complex' equipped with cultural content, advanced companies, and mixed-use facilities on a 383,743㎡ site in the Sang-dong area of Bucheon City. The GS Construction consortium, selected as the preferred negotiator, has a plan to attract 11 global leading content companies here and has been coordinating specific development directions with Bucheon City.

A Bucheon City official stated, "After completing the land appraisal process and signing the land sale contract, construction is scheduled to begin in the second half of next year and be completed by 2025."
