Dongdaemun-gu (Mayor Lee Pil-hyung) announced that it will record the construction process of housing redevelopment maintenance project sites through video and disclose it via the Dongdaemun-gu YouTube channel (DDM TV).

Recently, prospective residents have developed distrust regarding the construction process of buildings due to incidents such as the collapse of Gwangju Hwajeong I-Park and the underground parking lot collapse in Incheon Geomdan New Town, and it has been difficult to identify the causes after such accidents.

According to the Building Act, for multi-use buildings over 16 floors, special district buildings, and pilotis-type buildings over 3 floors, the constructor is required to take photos and videos at designated stages such as after the completion of foundation rebar placement and upper slab rebar placement, and submit them to the permitting authority through the supervisor and building owner. Dongdaemun-gu makes these videos submitted to the permitting authority public to allow prospective residents to understand the construction progress.

Additionally, to allow confirmation of the overall construction site and progress, the maintenance district construction sites are filmed using drones and other means, and the footage is disclosed quarterly through the Dongdaemun-gu YouTube channel.

Furthermore, on the 17th, the district held a special training session for construction-related personnel and a meeting with maintenance project site stakeholders within the district, conducted internal safety inspections, and discussed quality management plans. Going forward, quarterly meetings on quality and safety management will continue to be held.

Lee Pil-hyung, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, stated, “We will transparently disclose the entire construction process so that residents can be fully informed,” and added, “We will actively strive to prevent safety and quality-related accidents at construction sites within the region.”
