This project aims to develop and apply a 'semiconductor-specialized design' to public facilities along approximately a 1.5 km section around the main gate of SK Hynix. Based on the results of the project, the city plans to finalize the design plan after public design review. Subsequently, construction will proceed after consultations with relevant institutions and departments.

The interim report meeting was attended by a total of 21 people, including Mayor Kim, Vice Mayor Lee Sung-ho, related department heads of Icheon City, as well as executives from SK Hynix and the Hynix Shopping District Merchants' Association, exchanging opinions.

Mayor Kim said, “As SK Hynix continues to grow, the surrounding environment must be improved rapidly with a dignified image. We will make Bubal, the city’s gateway and home to a global company, a dignified city.”

The city plans to complete the design development by October, incorporating opinions presented at the interim report meeting, and then proceed with detailed design work to start individual projects from next year.
