[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] The 'Dobong 2-dong Urban Regeneration Activation Plan (Draft)' for the low-rise residential area and alley commercial district around 625 Dobong 2-dong was approved on March 25 at the 2nd Urban Regeneration Deliberation Committee meeting of 2021.

The area is generally aging, with over 90% of buildings being more than 20 years old, and lacks welfare and resident convenience facilities except for local senior centers and daycare centers.

Due to concerns about continuous decline in the youth (adolescent) population and regional deterioration, the area around 625 Dobong 2-dong was selected as a 'Seoul-type Urban Regeneration Phase 3 Project Area' in September 2018, and on October 8, 2019, it was finally designated as a target site for the government's Urban Regeneration New Deal project.

This project consists of 10 pilot projects and 5 linked projects, including purchasing vacant houses within the district to create a 4-meter urban planning road, and coordinating home repairs at the housing unit level and alleyway maintenance in parallel with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's joint projects, thereby implementing practical projects that can improve residents' quality of life.

Dobong-gu has formed 8 linked subcommittees, including home repair, care, and merchant divisions, for each unit project to actively manage and respond to conflicts that may arise during project implementation.

Additionally, plans have been prepared to encourage voluntary participation of resident councils through resident contest projects and urban regeneration universities to discover project execution entities and strengthen the urban regeneration capabilities of local residents.

Lee Dong-jin, Mayor of Dobong-gu, stated upon the approval of the Dobong 2-dong Urban Regeneration Activation Plan, "By the time the project is completed in 2023, we will focus public and private capabilities on this urban regeneration to achieve sustainable residential environment improvement."
