Deputy Prime Minister Hong also bowed his head regarding the market's unstable response during the government's real estate policy implementation process. He stated, "Under the firm policy direction of 'suppressing speculative demand and protecting actual demand' this year, we have actively promoted supply measures and residential stability measures, but it is regrettable and apologetic that market stability has not yet been established during the process of new systems settling in." He added, "Next year is an important period when the policies promoted this year will be fully implemented," and said, "The government will do its utmost to ensure early results in stabilizing the real estate market through monitoring market conditions, steady implementation of previously announced supply measures, continuous demand management, and blocking disruptive activities."
