Suncheon-si Takes Action to Resolve Issues of Long-Neglected Large Buildings
Research Service on Utilization Plans for Joeun Plaza and Hwanggeum Plaza
[Suncheon=Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] On the 22nd, Suncheon City in Jeollanam-do announced that it will conduct a research project to devise utilization plans for large buildings that have been left unused for a long time after receiving building use approval.
The target buildings are the Joeun Plaza building and the Hwanggeum Plaza building, which have been left unused for over 20 years after receiving building use approval. This has not only damaged the urban landscape and negatively affected the development of the local commercial district but also exposed the buildings to safety accidents and crimes.
In this research project, a wide range of opinions will be collected by expanding the scope to include building stakeholders, nearby merchants, and even the general public regarding the utilization plans for the buildings.
In particular, the opinions of related experts such as real estate specialized lawyers will be reflected, and a comprehensive analysis of realistic project cost estimation and feasibility will be conducted to establish the most efficient and sustainable operation and management plan.
Heo Seok, Mayor of Suncheon, stated, “Through this research project, we hope to derive the optimal utilization plan for large buildings that have been left unused for a long time, thereby creating conditions that can contribute to improving the urban landscape and revitalizing the local economy.”

Meanwhile, Suncheon City has continuously requested amendments to the Special Measures Act concerning the maintenance of long-term abandoned buildings, operated an ‘Active Administration T/F Team’ involving 8 teams from 4 departments, and made efforts to revitalize buildings through activities such as research groups for job creation via the activation of Joeun Plaza. However, due to complex ownership and stakeholder issues, autonomous resolution has been impossible.
