Goryeong-gun, Gyeongbuk Province (Governor Lee Nam-chul) has been conducting a survey since the 23rd to November 5th for two weeks to apply for the Youth Rural Settlement Project public contest (preliminary plan).


The Youth Rural Settlement Project, to be established in Beolji-ri, Dasan-myeon, Goryeong-gun, has a project budget of 10 billion KRW and a project period of three years from 2025 to 2027. It plans to create about 30 single-family rental housing units and a community center within the complex.


In the case of Goryeong-gun’s Youth Rural Settlement, the effectiveness of the project is expected to be maximized by linking it with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport’s regional demand-tailored support project and the provincial public contest project for the Millennium Architecture Pilot Village Creation Project.


The survey for this project targets returnees and prospective returnees to farming and rural areas aged 19 to under 50, and youth under 40 years old. It investigates topics such as returning to farming and rural living, housing types, the importance and form of auxiliary facilities, housing size, and linked programs.


Participation in the survey is conducted using the QR code on the promotional poster.


A county official said, “We will actively reflect the opinions proposed through the survey in the preliminary plan for the public contest to alleviate the housing burden of young people returning to farming and rural areas in Goryeong-gun and to enhance the sustainability of rural areas through the influx of youth. We hope residents will actively participate in the survey as their valuable opinions are needed for a better future of Goryeong-gun.”



Goryeong-gun has set the administrative goal for the 8th term as “Young Goryeong, Strong Goryeong” and stated that it will do its best to create a vibrant Goryeong. It is promoting various projects to find breakthroughs to solve contemporary challenges such as the stagnant economy and population decline, aiming to open an era of a younger Goryeong.
