  • Seoul City's Social Innovation Strategy: a Model of Multi-Channel
    Seoul City’s social innovation strategy: A model of multi-channel communication to strengthen governance and citizen engagement. Sunkyung Han, Jungwon Kim, Sojung Rim and AhYoung Park Spreadsi, South Korea Social Frontiers The next edge of social innovation research Social Frontiers Seoul City’s Social Innovation Strategy: 2 a model of multi-channel communication to strengthen govern- ance and citizen engagement Seoul City’s Social Innovation Strategy: a model of multi-channel communication to strengthen governance and citizen engagement Jungwon Kim1, Sunkyung Han, Ahyoung Park and Sojung Rim Abstract Over the past two years, Seoul Metropolitan Government has significantly changed the way it engages with its citizens – moving away from a one-way public communication model towards a system with greater focus on getting citizens more involved in decision-making process. Seoul Metropolitan Government has developed various communication channels that open up two-way dialogue between the city administration and citizens. This research paper explores how these new communication channels are creating a culture, which encourages city administration to engage with citizens who provide information about their needs and help shape new ideas. The research results show that Seoul Metropolitan Government’s multi-channel communication builds shared understanding and trusting relationship among various stakeholders including citizens. It enables them to become partners in co-creating innovative solutions to problems of our society. 1 Introduction Social innovation is gaining considerable interest in public policy discourse all around the world and South Korea is no exception. Ever since a well-known social innovator, Wonsoon Park, be- came the Mayor of Seoul in October 2011, there has been a shift towards a participatory and open dialogue between the Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) and Seoul citizens.

  • Changes in Park & Green Space Policies in Seoul
    Changes in Park & Green Space Policies in Seoul Date 2015-06-25 Category Environment Updater ssunha This report explores the park and green space policies of the Seoul Metropolitan Government (SMG) by period, from the time Korea opened its ports to the outside world until today. The periods are: modernization and Japanese colonial rule; the first and second republics; the third and fourth republics; the fifth and sixth republics; and local autonomous government administrations elected by popular vote. For each period, this report examines the institutional and spatial changes in urban parks. Modernization & Japanese Colonial Rule: The Dawn of Urban Parks Defining Characteristics: Mountains and valleys serving as parks (Joseon Dynasty); Independence Park (Open-door Period); destruction of cultural heritage (Japanese colonial government) The concept of parks and green spaces as planned facilities was introduced as a byproduct of modernization in the late 19th and early 20th century. Of course there had been places that served as parks and green spaces ever since the Kingdom of Joseon moved its capital to today’s Seoul in 1394. The city is surrounded by an inner ring of 4 mountains and an outer ring of another 4 mountains, with the Han River flowing east to west. During the Joseon Dynasty, the walled city was located to the north of the Han, and the significance of the inner ring of Bugak Mountain, Inwang Mountain, Nak Mountain, and Nam Mountain was profound as the city walls were built on their ridges. Scholars of old would visit nearby mountain valleys where they wrote and recited poems for leisure.

  • The By-Election for Seoul Mayor.Pdf
    Game Changer: The By-Election for Seoul Mayor An analysis of the October 26 by-election exit poll The Asan Institute for Policy Studies Woo Jung-Yeop Lisa Collins Many observers claimed that the by-election that took place on October 26 would not only determine the new mayor of Seoul, but would also forecast the results of next year’s presidential election. In order to further analyze the by- election results, the Asan Institute for Policy Studies conducted an exit poll to investigate why and how voters cast their ballots. Previous exit polls only predicted who would win the presidential election. Our survey differs from past exit polls because we examine in detail voters’ rationale for supporting a particular candidate. Using alternative questions and methodology, we believe that our survey results will help shed more light on voters’ behavior and decision making processes. Background on the Seoul Mayoral By-Election In the October 26 by-election, Park Won-soon, an independent candidate and lawyer-turned-activist, defeated Na Kyung-won, a candidate from the ruling Grand National Party (GNP). Park won the election with 53.3 percent of the vote against Na’s 46.3 percent. Korean politics have been on a rollercoaster ride since last August when former Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon staked his position as mayor on the results of a referendum. It began with a battle between Oh and the Seoul City Council. The City Council, which is dominated by opposition party members, decided earlier this year to provide free lunches to all 850,000 elementary and middle school students in Seoul.

  • 153-174 Collaboration and Confucian Reflexivity in Local Energy
    Journal of Contemporary Eastern Asia Vol. 18, No. 1: 153-174 DOI: 10.17477/jcea.2019.18.1.153 Collaboration and Confucian Reflexivity in Local Energy Governance: The Case of Seoul’s One Less Nuclear Power Plant Initiatives 1 Youhyun Lee 2, Suho Bae3 South Korea's energy policy has been historically established through an energy production structure that relies on thermal and nuclear power generation in relation to a centralized ‘Hard Energy System’. However, climate change issues are forcing the transition to renewable energy, and it is crucial for local governments to enable this. This study analyses Seoul city’s local energy governance, which is known as One Less Nuclear Power Plant Initiative, by applying the collaborative governance framework inspired by Ansell and Gash (2008) and the Reflexivity framework of Confucianism. It is considered that the local energy governance model of Seoul city can be used as a model by other local governments, and it will eventually lead to a decentralized energy system in this era of energy transition. Keywords: Local Energy Governance; Confucian Reflexivity; Collaborative Governance, Energy Decentralization Introduction South Korea (herein referred to as ‘Korea’) has had very conservative-high dependence on nuclear, petroleum and central government leading-in approach to coping with energy transition issues. In addition to becoming the 11th largest global economy (based on International Monetary Fund Stats in 2017), Korea has played a leading role in the green-growth paradigm. However, the current emphasis of the Korean government is more on “growth” than “green” 1 The original draft was first presented in IPPA, 3rd International Conference on Public Policy in Singapore June, 2017.

  • Park Won-Soon Seoul
    Voice of the Mayors Park Won-Soon Seoul People are the hope Park Won-Soon Voice of the Mayors 1 About Voice of the Mayors Celebrating its thirtieth anniversary, METROPOLIS wishes to leverage the unique experience of its members, represented by the mayors of the major metro- polises, presidents and governors of metropolitan regions. Too often, the expertise of these high-ranking offi cials is lost once their term has come to an end. However, at a time when global urban development is quickening its pace, their experience is more benefi cial than ever for the new generations of local decision-makers, the entire spectrum of public and private local development stakeholders and partners in the international community. In its capacity as a network of the world’s major metropolises, METROPO- LIS also seeks to make an active contribution to the current international debate concerning the revision of the Millennium Development Goals, negotiations on cli- mate change and the preparations for the United Nations Conference on Housing and Sustainable Urban Development (Habitat III). This is how the idea for Voice of the Mayors came into being, as a wealth of fi rst-hand testimonies from local and regional leaders whose experience deser- ves to be recounted and disseminated. Bequeathing this legacy also conveys the willingess of METROPOLIS members to share their experiences and to enhance the exchange of knowledge, a concerted eff ort to contribute towards shaping sustai- nable urban development worldwide. Upon the creation of METROPOLIS in 1984, the 14 founding members expressed their desire to work together to strengthen their mutual capacities to manage their cities.

The rise and fall of a commercial hub First built in 1966 as a large-scale remodelling project, Sewoon Sangga (or Sewoon Shopping Mall) connects Jongmyo Shrine and the Nam Mountain. The name commonly refers to the stretch of eight buildings—Hyundai Arcade (currently removed), Sewoon Arcade, Cheonggye Arcade, Dalim Arcade, Sampoong Arcade, Poongjeon Hotel, Shinseong Arcade, and Jinyang Arcade— which are each 8-17 floors high, and together, stretch 1 km from south to north along the street. When first completed, Sewoon Sangga introduced many ground-breaking concepts, including being the country’s first multi-purpose building.
