The district prioritized and supported those whose housing environments were especially poor. The first house, an old villa, was newly renovated through customized repairs including wallpapering, flooring, insulation work, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, pest control, and a thorough cleaning. The renovation took two weeks, after which the youth moved back into the improved home.
This project was promoted through a business agreement between Eunpyeong District and the Korea Collective Building Social Cooperative. In addition to home repairs, the district provides comprehensive support, including inspections of safety devices such as fire alarms and gas leak detectors, living essentials worth 200,000 won, maintenance education, and post-management services.
The independent youth who moved into the first house shared, "The house is much cleaner and more comfortable, and I think it will be a great support in my daily life."
