[Asia Economy Reporter Hwang Seoyul] Booyoung Group's Woojeong Medical Foundation is constructing a large general hospital in Geumcheon-gu, Seoul.

Booyoung Group announced on the 15th that Woojeong Medical Foundation and Geumcheon-gu have signed a business agreement for the establishment of the general hospital.

This is the first time Booyoung Group has entered the medical business. In 2017, the company established Woojeong Medical Foundation through its group affiliates Booyoung Housing and Donggwang Housing, securing business qualifications by investing hospital land and operating funds worth approximately 45 billion KRW.

The general hospital to be built at 996 Siheung-dong, Geumcheon-gu, Seoul, will have 5 basement floors and 18 above-ground floors, with a total floor area of 175,818㎡ and 809 beds. Specialized medical centers such as the Cardiovascular Center, Gastroenterology Center, and Women's Center, as well as health-related facilities including a Mental Health Welfare Center, Dementia Safety Center, and psychological counseling office "Maeum Shwim" will also be established. A 3,300㎡ park will be created within the hospital site.

A foundation official stated, "By creating public health-related offices and parks within the hospital, we will be able to provide residents not only with medical services but also with various welfare benefits."
