In the center of the complex, a swimming pool with natural lighting and a multipurpose gymnasium will be installed. The two-story gymnasium will have a running track and exercise equipment on the upper floor, while the lower floor will be designed for indoor ball games such as basketball.

Especially for families living with pets, a pet hotel and pet play area will be prepared to care for pets during long absences such as trips or business trips.

The kindergarten and daycare center within the complex will be modeled after Samsung’s daycare centers. Samsung C&T plans to create a safe childcare environment by utilizing the safe childcare guidelines it developed.

Samsung C&T also plans to bring in wedding brand Apelgamo, CineQ cinema, and bookstore Bandi & Luni’s to the Banpo 3rd District commercial area.

Above all, to meet the high academic enthusiasm in the Banpo area, well-known academies will be attracted to the commercial area. They have received letters of intent from 'Thinking Bull Math,' 'Same-day Learning Method Kang An Education,' and 'Pagoda Language Institute' to create an 'Edu Town.'

A Samsung C&T official said, "We proposed the best business conditions based on 20 years of Ramian know-how," and added, "We will successfully carry out the construction of a new landmark representing Banpo."
