[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Jiwon] Kumho Industrial is a company that has steadily built a track record in all areas of construction, including civil engineering, architecture, and housing, for over 53 years since its founding in 1967. In particular, the apartment brand 'Eoullim,' launched in May 2003, has received industry and market acclaim for nearly 20 years with its nature-friendly yet luxurious image.

'Yeoju Station Kumho Eoullim Vertis,' supplied by Kumho Industrial in the Gyodong 2 District urban development area in Yeoju, Gyeonggi Province, is a representative complex that combines the unique advantages of Eoullim. In the first-priority subscription held last June, excluding special supply, a total of 1,590 applicants applied for 555 households, recording an average competition rate of 2.86 to 1, setting a new record for the highest competition rate in Yeoju's history.

'Yeoju Station Kumho Eoullim Vertis' is composed of 7 buildings ranging from basement level 1 to ground level 27, with 605 households sized between 84 and 136㎡ (exclusive area). By size, there are 578 units of 84㎡, 22 units of 98㎡, and 5 units of 136㎡. Designed mainly with south-facing slab-type 4-bay layouts that maximize lighting and ventilation, it enhances residential comfort. As the tallest landmark apartment in Yeoju's Gangnam area at 27 floors, the top floor features penthouses with terraces.

A lawn yard is created at the center of the complex, with healing walking paths, a healthcare garden, and a large oak resting shelter located throughout the complex. To meet the needs of couples raising children, a themed children's playground is also provided. In line with the nature-friendly brand image, it has obtained a preliminary certification for green building. Kumho Industrial also acquired a preliminary certification for building energy efficiency grade, planning to build the complex as an eco-friendly apartment.

This complex is a station-area apartment within walking distance of Yeoju Station on the Gyeonggang Line. Using the subway, it takes about 40 minutes to reach Pangyo. It is also easily accessible to the entire Seoul metropolitan area via Seo Yeoju IC, Nam Yeoju IC, and Yeoju IC. Elementary, middle, and high schools are all within walking distance, and convenience facilities such as Yeoju City Hall, Yeoju Sports Complex, and Yeoju Sejong Hospital are nearby.

In particular, the Gyodong area where the complex is being developed is expected to transform into a mini-new town-level emerging residential area in conjunction with the Yeoju station area development project, so a large number of living convenience facilities are expected to be expanded in the future. A Kumho Industrial official said, "'Eoullim' means harmony with life, harmony with nature, and harmony with people," adding, "It embodies Kumho's commitment to building high-quality housing."
