The 'Gyeonggi Safe Jeonse Project' is a large-scale initiative designed to help residents conduct transactions with confidence in the complex and challenging jeonse market, and to prevent damages caused by jeonse fraud.

This year's performance report meeting served as a venue to share the efforts and achievements of each city and county over the past year and to spread best practices. Among them, Paju City demonstrated the most outstanding results, earning the Grand Prize and a cash award of 5 million won.

Paju City has made multifaceted efforts to prevent jeonse fraud, including establishing a proactive response system, providing practical information for citizens, and offering thorough support for jeonse contracts through expert collaboration.

In particular, the enactment of the "Paju City Ordinance on the Prevention of Jeonse Fraud and Operation of the Safe Jeonse Management Team," the distribution of name tags to brokerage assistants and the Safe Jeonse Management Team, promotional activities tailored to citizens, and the production and distribution of inspection checklists have all been highly praised for significantly contributing to the prevention of jeonse-related damages.

A Gyeonggi Province official stated, "Paju City's proactive and systematic efforts serve as a model for other cities and counties. We sincerely applaud Paju City's passion for continuously contemplating and taking action to ensure a safe residential environment for residents."

Kim Younggi, head of the Real Estate Division, said, "Winning the Grand Prize is the result of prioritizing citizens' housing stability and the united efforts of the city and the Safe Jeonse Management Team. We will continue to work even harder to establish a transparent and safe jeonse transaction culture and to create a secure residential environment for our citizens."
