As of the end of last year, Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon's assets amounted to approximately 5.9 billion KRW, making him the wealthiest incumbent metropolitan government head. However, his declared assets slightly decreased due to the sale of a leasehold right during the process of moving his residence to an official residence.

According to the 2024 regular asset change report for public officials released by the Government Ethics Committee on the 28th, Mayor Oh's total assets, including those owned by his family, were calculated at 5,975,990,000 KRW.

Mayor Oh jointly owned a multi-family house in Daechi-dong, Gangnam-gu (2,416,000,000 KRW) with his spouse. The leasehold right on an apartment in Jayang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, registered under his name (1,400,000,000 KRW), was sold.

Deposits increased by 1,041,860,000 KRW, from 3,072,840,000 KRW to 4,144,700,000 KRW, combining both his and his spouse's accounts. It appears that part of the proceeds from the apartment leasehold sale was transferred into deposits. Securities also rose from 375,690,000 KRW to 397,000,000 KRW. His spouse declared land worth 131,280,000 KRW in Goyang-si, Gyeonggi-do, along with five sculptures valued at a total of 55,000,000 KRW.

Additionally, in Seoul City, Deputy Mayor for Political Affairs Kang Cheol-won reported assets totaling 1,521,690,000 KRW, an increase of 39,670,000 KRW. Acting Administrative Deputy Mayor Kim Sang-han (then Director of Planning and Coordination Office) reported 1,177,490,000 KRW, a decrease of 79,200,000 KRW, while Administrative Deputy Mayor Yoo Chang-soo declared 3,398,340,000 KRW, an increase of 146,540,000 KRW.

Among Seoul City-affiliated and subordinate organizations, the individual with the largest assets is Vice President Song Oh-sung of the University of Seoul, who reported 5,483,230,000 KRW, a decrease of 633,250,000 KRW from before.
