Ulsan Provides Emergency Housing Support for Victims of 'Jeonse Fraud'

Ulsan City, Korea Land & Housing Corporation, and Housing & Urban Guarantee Corporation Agreement

An ‘Emergency Housing Support Project’ is being promoted in Ulsan to provide temporary shelter for victims of jeonse fraud who have no place to live.

Ulsan City, Korea Land and Housing Corporation (LH) Busan-Ulsan Regional Headquarters, and Housing and Urban Guarantee Corporation (HUG) have signed a written agreement called the ‘Emergency Housing Support Business Agreement for Jeonse Victims’ to provide rapid housing support for households affected by jeonse fraud.

According to the agreement, Ulsan City will be responsible for leasing and operating emergency support housing (selecting and managing tenants), as well as providing housing welfare information and living support services for tenants.

LH Busan-Ulsan Regional Headquarters will handle securing and supplying emergency support housing and managing the emergency support housing. HUG will perform tasks such as verifying jeonse fraud victims among households wishing for emergency housing support within Ulsan City and assisting in selecting households affected by jeonse fraud.

Currently, there are 47 emergency support housing units secured (with 1 unit scheduled for occupancy), and the quantity will be determined through consultation if necessary.

The rental period is 6 months (extendable up to 2 years), and residents only need to pay rent and maintenance fees at about 30% of the market price without any deposit.

Consultations and damage reports related to jeonse fraud can be made at the ‘Jeonse Damage Reception Office’ established in the Ulsan City Architecture Policy Division.
