SH Corporation's 13 Regional Center Civil Service Offices Transformed into Community Rest Areas

[Asia Economy Reporter Onyu Lim] Seoul Housing and Communities Corporation (SH Corporation) will expand and operate the civil service offices of 13 regional centers as community rest areas.

On the 25th, SH Corporation announced that it will create community rest areas for local residents and customers to relax and communicate at 13 regional centers responsible for managing approximately 210,000 rental housing units supplied by the corporation.

Four regional centers?Mapo Yongsan, Gangseo, Seongdong Jung-gu, and Gangnam Seocho?completed the creation of community rest areas in May and are currently operating them. Five regional centers?Gwanak Dongjak, Yangcheon Yeongdeungpo, Gangdong, Guro Geumcheon, and Nowon Dobong?are scheduled to establish community rest areas by July. Additionally, the remaining four regional centers plan to complete the setup sequentially.

The newly created community rest areas in the four regional centers will include cafe-style rest areas, consultation booths, and computers for document printing. The aim is to improve the civil service spaces from merely administrative areas for handling civil complaints to places where residents can relax, stay comfortably, and receive consultations with peace of mind.

Kim Seyong, President of SH Corporation, said, “In this increasingly hot season, I hope local residents can comfortably rest and communicate with each other in the newly created community rest areas by the corporation. We will continue to strive to ensure that the community rest areas established by SH Corporation serve as spaces for rest and communication for Seoul citizens.”
