Is the Sampyo Remicon Seoul Forest Factory Being Relocated?
Seoul City Councilor Kim Gidae Urges Detailed Plan for Sampo Remicon Factory Relocation and Demolition... October 2017 'Agreement for Sampo Remicon Factory Relocation to Complete Seoul Forest' Signed... Demolition Should Have Been Completed by June 2022 but Detailed Plan Still Not Submitted
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Jong-il] Kim Gidae, Seoul City Council member (Democratic Party, Seongdong 3), urged the preparation of a concrete relocation and demolition plan to ensure that the Sampyo Remicon factory adjacent to Seoul Forest is demolished as scheduled, so that the completion of Seoul Forest is not delayed.
In October 2017, Seoul City signed a four-party agreement with Seongdong-gu, Sampyo Industry, and landowner Hyundai Steel to demolish and relocate Sampyo Industry's Seongsu factory by June 2022, known as the "Agreement for the Relocation of Sampyo Remicon Factory to Complete Seoul Forest."
With less than a year remaining until the demolition of Sampyo Industry's Seongsu factory, a detailed plan for relocation and demolition to fulfill the agreement should be prepared; however, specific relocation site selection and demolition schedules are still lacking.
Therefore, Seoul City should actively engage and consult with Hyundai Steel and Sampyo Industry to ensure the agreement is implemented without any setbacks.
Council member Kim Gidae stated, "It is regrettable that a concrete demolition plan has not been prepared with less than a year left until the June 2022 demolition deadline. Hyundai Steel and Sampyo Industry must faithfully fulfill the terms of the agreement, and Seoul City should work together in this effort."

He added, "The relocation of the Sampyo Remicon factory has been a long-standing wish of Seongdong-gu residents due to issues such as noise, dust, and traffic, as well as the expansion of Seoul Forest. The expectations of the district residents are high. The demolition must be completed by June 2022 as scheduled, and the area should be developed into Seoul Forest as planned."
