Yongsan Market Riding the Wave of Development Boons... 'Ermoso Yongsan' at the Center, Now Selling with High Praise

When determining the value of a property in the real estate market, not only the current value but also the future value is an important factor. Therefore, properties that may seem insignificant now can receive high evaluations depending on the presence of major development prospects, while properties that appear glamorous now may receive relatively lower evaluations. It is only natural that the real estate industry pays close attention to information about development projects such as new town developments or subway openings.

Recently, the Yongsan area has emerged as one of the most closely watched regions as national-level development plans are being established beyond local government initiatives. Despite its central location in Seoul, Yongsan was a relatively slow-developing area due to its military significance. Before and after liberation, a U.S. military base was established there, and even after the establishment of the Republic of Korea government, the Ministry of National Defense, Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Army Headquarters were located there, designating the area as a military facility protection zone, which hindered development. However, the atmosphere has changed significantly as the government actively promotes multiple development projects within Yongsan, including the relocation of the U.S. military base and redevelopment of the former Yongsan U.S. military base site.

Current development projects in Yongsan include the creation of Yongsan Park, dubbed the “Korean Central Park,” the Yongsan International Business District development project covering approximately 510,000㎡, and redevelopment projects around Yongsan Station and Sinyongsan Station. Additionally, apartment complexes in Ichon-dong are undergoing redevelopment, and even Hannam New Town is bustling. Furthermore, plans for extending the Shinbundang Line and the GTX B Line to improve Yongsan’s transportation infrastructure are underway, signaling a complete transformation.

With a series of positive development news in Yongsan, attention is also focused on the local real estate market. One such project is “Ermoso Yongsan,” which officially began sales on the 21st. Ermoso Yongsan is especially notable for its location adjacent to the Yongsan International Business District and Yongsan Park.

Investors’ interest is not only due to the location. Ermoso Yongsan can be purchased without a subscription savings account and is not subject to resale restrictions, allowing for more flexible fund management. Amid increasing demand for officetels used as residential facilities, the rarity of supplying only 55 units of 2-room/3-BAY structured officetels with excellent residential usability stands out. The officetels, ranging from 9.7 to 11.2 pyeong in exclusive area, are being supplied from the 2nd to the 16th floor.

Convenience facilities for residents are also key points that investors should not overlook. A total of 13 options are provided free of charge, including imported Italian kitchen furniture, triple sliding doors, stylers, wall pads, washing machines and dryers, ovens, Samsung Bespoke refrigerators, Haatz induction cooktops, and LG Aero Furniture air purifiers. Additionally, exclusive resident lounges and community spaces are established to offer a refined healing life in the city.

Nearby, there is the I’Park Mall housing Emart and CGV, as well as Shinsegae Duty Free and Yongsan Family Park, providing solid living, cultural, and economic infrastructure. The area boasts pentagon station zone infrastructure with subway lines 1, 4, and 6, and the Gyeongui-Jungang Line within walking distance. Numerous metropolitan bus routes passing through Seoul and the metropolitan area facilitate active population inflow, and accessibility to major Seoul roads such as Gangbyeonbuk-ro, Olympic-daero, and Hangang-ro is excellent.

Within a 1.5 km radius, many companies including Amorepacific are located, accommodating a workforce of 130,000. Once the planned Asia Silicon Valley International Business District and the Korean Central Park Yongsan Park development projects are completed, even greater demand is expected.

A sales representative stated, “With the recent easing of DSR regulations on officetels, expectations for officetel investments are rising. Moreover, in the case of Ermoso Yongsan, if the contract holder signs a contract with the rental management specialist company The Good House, they can receive stable rental income regardless of vacancy, and inquiries related to this are ongoing,” sharing the current atmosphere on site.
