The analysis results show that there is statistically significant evidence that supports the land price difference between the restricted area and the unrestricted area of Namyangju caused by the restriction for water quality protection. In specific, under the semi- log model, the loss rate that the restricted area experience is 15.0% of the land price of the unrestricted area. Under the double-log model, the rate is estimated to be 19.8%. Based on the results from the regression analyses of the models, the total compensations for the city of Namyangju are estimated to be in the range between 6.5 and 8.6 trillion won.

  • Designing Housing and Urban Policies to Address a Population Shift to the Suburbs
    POLICY BRIEF Designing Housing and Urban Policies to Address a Population Shift to the Suburbs Newly constructed resident complex in the Republic of Korea. Photo credit: KRIHS. A study shows reducing involuntary migration to peripheries of the Greater Seoul Area requires policy interventions to regulate housing cost and supply. Published: 23 July 2018 Introduction A strong correlation between population movement patterns and the housing segment The total population living in Seoul, capital of the Republic of Korea, has recently fallen below the 10- million mark. An “exodus” from Seoul is widely discussed in the media as a social issue, drawing attention to population movements and related changes in the Greater Seoul Metropolitan Area. Indeed, population changes are closely related to the housing segment, showing a strong correlation with housing and urban management. Population movements in the Greater Seoul Metropolitan Area drive changes in household composition by region, causing new housing and urban issues. The supply of houses is not only influenced by changes in housing demand resulting from population movement but also affects population movement. That is, residential movement interacts with the supply of new houses and housing problems and exhibits a strong correlation with various housing and urban problems. The Greater Seoul Area, or Seoul Capital Area, is the metropolitan area of Seoul, Incheon and Gyeonggi province. Importance of policy responses to population movement to improve housing conditions Given the strong correlation between residential movement and various housing and urban issues, policy measures should be established by clearly identifying the link between residential movement patterns and the regional characteristics of new housing supplies in order to address housing and urban problems caused by residential movement.

  • Distribution and Management of the Invasive Exotic Species Ambrosia Trifida and Sicyos Angulatus in the Seoul Metropolitan Area

We selected our study sites based on those used in previous studies and on information in data- bases. All flora were classified into 57 families and 211 species; we evaluated 253 plant communities. The representative, invasive exotic species were Sicyos angulatus, Lactuca scariola, Ambrosia trifida, Ambrosia artemisiifolia, and Eupatorium rugo- sum. Stands of A. trifida ranged in area from 214 to 16,882 m2 and were present in riparian zones, road and forest edges, slopes, and other open habitats at all sites, cov- ering an average of 37.87% of all study areas. In Gwangju, Ansan, and Anyang cities and in Yeoncheon-gun, A. trifida coverage was >50%; the total mean coverage was near-continuous along the Han and the South Han rivers, broken only by cliffs in some riparian zones, and anthropogenic constructions. A. trifida and S. angulatus require careful management because of extensive growth, shading, and twining. The biodi- versity of native species may be conserved by physical eradication of these plants.

  • Commuting Analysis in the Seoul Metropolitan Statistical Area
    1. Introduction According to UNCHS1) data, the one-way commuting time in Seoul was about 60 minutes in 1998, while that in Tokyo was 45 minutes and that in New York was 32 minutes. In general, a city’s competitiveness is often measured by the commuting patterns and commuting time as well as some other economic variables such as Gross Regional Domestic Product(GRDP). Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the commuting not only in terms of time, but also flow. In order to explore commuting patterns, geographic classification is very Commuting Analysis in the Seoul Metropolitan Statistical Area important, which defines the spatial commuting boundary of a city. Thus, the Metropolitan Statistical Areas(MSAs) is used in this paper. It was defined by cross-commuting rates, population, and population density, which is quite similar to the criteria of a Standard Metropolitan Statistical Areas(SMSAs) in the United States. Then, the commuting inflows and outflows are considered using In-Out tabulation(often called origin/destination). From the In-Out tabulation matrix, the business and resident areas were able to be classified. Accordingly, the method of commuting is inspected across regions to see any potentially spatial constraint. For example, whether or not more people would use public transportation in the central business districts. This analysis in commuting behavior would be a great potential information source for regional development policies for suburban areas. 1) Global Urban Indicators of United Nations Centre for Human Settlements 14 KIET Industrial Economic Review 2.

  • Strategies for City Networks
    Strategies for Network Cities explained with the example of South Korea Zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines DOKTOR-INGENIEURS an der Fakultät für Bauingenieur-, Geo- und Umweltwissenschaften der Universität Fridericiana zu Karlsruhe (TH) genehmigte DISSERTATION von M. Eng. Hyun-Suk Min aus Seoul Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 26.06.2006 Hauptreferent: Univ.-Prof. Dr. sc. techn. Bernd Scholl Korreferent: Univ.-Prof. Dr.-Ing. Walter Schönwandt Karlsruhe 2006 Preface People and industries have concentrated to the big cities to achieve economies of scale. However the problems of this urban concentration become gradually obvious and have limited the development of the metropolises. They are hardly managed by current planning measures. In the diversifying social needs for heterogeneous life styles and sustainable mobility, now it is inevitable to adjust the sustainable space system. As an alternative answerable to this new demand here is suggested an approach of network cities. Even though strategies for network cities were proposed with an example of South Korea, the conceptual approaches can be applied to other countries, especially functionally centralized nations or developing countries which experience now rapid urbanization than any other times. Until this concept of network cities was made concrete, however the direct and indirect contribution of several important persons was essential. They were willing to discuss with me and give me recommendations. Here I wish my deep appreciation for their kindness. I thank Prof. Bernd Scholl for not only his scientific support and guidance throughout my works but also his tolerance and encouragement. He suggested me to investigate diverse spatial development plans for city networks in other countries and helped me to think of ideas on network cities.
