Support up to 150,000 KRW per month for 10 months

Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongnam Province, is recruiting participants for the ‘Youth Monthly Rent Support Project’ to stabilize housing and improve living conditions for local youth.


This project is open to youth aged 19 to 45 who are registered residents of Hapcheon-gun as of the announcement date and are household heads without housing living separately from their parents. The income criteria require applicants to have an income between 60% and 150% of the median income, and they must reside in housing with a rental deposit of 100 million KRW or less and a monthly rent of 600,000 KRW or less.

Homeowners (including household members), those renting from direct ascendants (such as parents), basic livelihood security recipients, national and local government officials (including public employees), employees of investment and contribution institutions, and residents of public rental housing are excluded from eligibility.


The support amount is up to 150,000 KRW per month for 10 months. Youth wishing to participate can apply in person at the county administration office or by registered mail by the 20th of this month, and online applications are also available through the Gyeongnam Baro Service website.


Note that overlapping support with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport’s Youth Monthly Rent Temporary Special Support Project is not allowed. Applicants should use the self-diagnosis system (Bokjiro) for a mock calculation before applying for the rent support program that matches their income criteria.



Meanwhile, Hapcheon-gun plans to select applicants starting with those with lower recognized income amounts after checking income recognition through the social security system. The final selected recipients will receive support retroactively from the February rent payment up to November, with a maximum of 1.5 million KRW.
