    SOUTH KOREA – November 2020 CONTENTS PROPERTY OWNERS GET BIG TAX SHOCK ............................................................................................................................. 1 GOV'T DAMPER ON FLAT PRICES KEEPS PUSHING THEM UP ...................................................................................................... 3 ______________________________________________________________________________ Property owners get big tax shock A 66-year-old man who lives in Mok-dong of Yangcheon District, western Seoul, was shocked recently after checking his comprehensive real estate tax bill. It was up sevenfold.He owns two apartments including his current residence. They were purchased using severance pay, with rent from the second unit to be used for living expenses. Last year, the bill was 100,000 won ($90) for comprehensive real estate tax. This year, it was 700,000 won. Next year, it will be about 1.5 million won. “Some people might say the amount is so little for me as a person who owns two apartments. However, I’m really confused now receiving the bill when I’m not earning any money at the moment,” Park said. “I want to sell one, but then I'll be obliged to pay a large amount of capital gains tax, and I would lose a way to make a living.” On Nov. 20, the National Tax Service started sending this year’s comprehensive real estate tax bills to homeowners. The homeowners can check the bills right away online, or they will receive the bills in the mail around Nov. 26. The comprehensive real estate tax is a national tax targeting expensive residential real estate and some kinds of land. It is separate from property taxes levied by local governments. Under the government’s comprehensive real estate tax regulation, the tax is levied yearly on June 1 on apartment whose government-assessed value exceeds 900 million won.

  • Changes and Continued Growth of Foreign Investment
    The Top 20 Korean Multinationals: Changes and Continued Growth of Foreign Investment Seoul and New York, March 5, 2015 Graduate School of International Studies at Seoul National University in Seoul, and the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment (CCSI), a joint center of the Columbia Law School and the Earth Institute at Columbia University in New York, are releasing the results of their survey of Korean multinationals today. The survey, conducted during 2014, is part of a long-term study of the rapid global expansion of multinational enterprises (MNEs) from emerging markets.1 The research for this report was conducted in 2014 and covers the period from 2011 to 2013.2 Highlights In 2013, the top 20 Korean multinationals, ranked by their foreign assets (See Table 1), jointly held US$68.9 billion assets abroad.3 Most firms were subsidiaries of Korea’s eight leading business groups (or chaebols), including Samsung, POSCO, LG, Hyundai Heavy Industries, Hyundai-Kia Motors, SK, Lotte, and Hyosung Group. Five out of the 20 multinationals were also included in UNCTAD’s “Top 100 non-financial TNCs from developing and transition economies” in 2012.4 The average age of the top 20 firms is about 47 years, which is two times the average age of Korea’s top 1,000 firms (ranked in terms of total assets). There is a high concentration by the top players in the list in terms of foreign assets. Among the top 20 companies, Samsung Electronics, POSCO, and Hyundai Motor Company ranked in the top three in that order. There was a significant difference between first and second place, with the foreign assets of Samsung Electronics more than doubling that of POSCO.

  • The Social Construction of Inequality in Gangnam District, Seoul1
    Jung In KIM, Matjaž URŠIČ* BESIEGED CITIZENSHIP – THE SOCIAL CONSTRUCTION OF INEQUALITY IN GANGNAM DISTRICT, SEOUL1 Abstract. Through an illustrative comparison of squat- ter settlements and gentrified spaces, this study traces the genealogy and formation of extreme poverty at the heart of the most affluent district in Seoul. A site of urban struggle, the villages of Poi and Guryong did not start as spontaneous informal settlements, but as relocated camps of deprivileged social groups whose dislocation was forced by state authorities. After three decades, the Poi and Guryong villages have grown to become contested sites and polar opposites of the hous- ing complex of Tower Place that has is today one of the trendiest neighbourhoods in Seoul. On one hand, the Poi and Guryong villages provide a solid commu- 74 nity space for those displaced, yet one which has now become exceptionally valuable real estate that officials wish to reclaim for new development. The article analy- ses the conflict between residents and entails more than any simple narration of the poor’s disenfranchisement and raises the question of the social construction of ine- qualities and poverty in Seoul. Keywords: squatter settlement, urban development, state planning, Gangnam, citizenship Introduction Modern-day Seoul contains rare and sparsely dispersed enclaves of urban squatters, a few of the last relics of past urbanisation (Cho, 1997; Chung and Lee, 2015; Yonhap, 2017). Paralleling contemporary scenes of urban poverty in East Asia, those urban enclaves of poor people and their everyday life juxtapose manifestations of inequality and injustice against * Jung In Kim, PhD, Professor, Soongsil University, Seoul, South Korea; Matjaž Uršič, PhD, Assistant Professor, Faculty of Social Sciences, University of Ljubljana, Slovenia.

  • Project Hashtag 2020
    PROJECT HASHTAG 2020 24 July ~ 30 September 2020 MMCA Seoul The National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, Korea (MMCA, Director Youn Bummo), presents PROJECT HASHTAG 2020, an exhibition stemming from an innovative public contest titled PROJECT #, from 24 July through 30 September at MMCA Seoul. Launched in 2019, its purpose is to seek out promising next-generation artists and promote multidisciplinary collaborations. Hosted by the MMCA and sponsored by Hyundai Motor, PROJECT # is an innovative and unprecedented form of contest devised to discover and support burgeoning talent by encouraging collaborations among creators in a variety of fields. The hashtag (#) is a special symbol that is used and interpreted in many ways depending on the context, region, or generation; in musical notation it is a “sharp,” in prose it is an abbreviation for “number,” and online it has become part of the language of social media. As the name of this project, it symbolizes the goal of bringing together prospective 1 / 8 artists in various fields and helping them demonstrate their capabilities on an international level. Beginning with the inaugural contest in 2019, this five-year project will select two teams annually (10 teams in total) and provide them with a grant, a studio, and an overseas opportunity. Out of 203 teams which applied from various fields, two teams were selected as finalists: GANGNAMBUG, and Seoul Queer Collective (SQC). These teams are composed of varied talents in the fields of design, architecture, and research. Using collective ideas that transcend formal boundaries and which demonstrate art’s limitless potential, these two teams proposed projects concerning the district of Gangnam and the Jongno 3-ga area in Seoul.
