Designated as a candidate site for the national industrial complex in August 2018, the Sejong Smart National Industrial Complex is planned to be developed over 2.7 million square meters in the Wachon and Budong-ri areas of Yeonseo-myeon, Sejong City. However, even before the complex was designated, suspicious speculative activities such as planting trees or installing prefabricated buildings to seek compensation occurred repeatedly.
