On the morning of the 17th, Mayor Oh visited the Olympic Park Foreon site in Gangdong-gu and conducted a preliminary inspection with four newlywed couples who won the 'Miri Nae Jip' lottery and will be moving in. After touring the site, he listened to the difficulties and suggestions related to marriage, childbirth, and child-rearing. The newlywed couples who attended the inspection and meeting shared the hardships they had experienced due to the burdens of child-rearing and housing costs, and talked about their impressions and episodes related to winning the 'Miri Nae Jip' lottery.

Also known as Long-term Jeonse Housing II, 'Miri Nae Jip' is a version of the long-term jeonse housing (SHIFT) program introduced by Mayor Oh in 2007, targeted at newlywed couples. It provides long-term jeonse housing at affordable prices for newlyweds and offers various incentives such as extending the residence period upon childbirth and opportunities for home ownership. In July, 300 newlywed households were recruited to move into Olympic Park Foreon as the first 'Miri Nae Jip' residents, with a maximum competition rate of 213 to 1, showing great popularity. The winners will move in this December.

The city plans to continuously expand the 'Miri Nae Jip' program. In August, 327 households were recruited across six complexes including Lotte Castle East Pole in Jayang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, and Hillstate I-Pyeonhan Sesang in Munjeong-dong, Songpa-gu. In December, 400 households will be recruited in preferred areas for newlyweds such as Seocho and Seongdong-gu. This includes Maple Xi in Jamwon-dong, Seocho-gu, Cheonggye SK View in Yongdap-dong, Seongdong-gu, and Hillstate Cheongnyangni Metroble in Yongdu-dong, Dongdaemun-gu.

A Seoul city official stated, "Starting in 2026, we are exploring various measures, including utilizing newly built purchased rental housing, to steadily supply more than 4,000 households annually," and added, "We are also considering establishing a dedicated organization."
