Land Minister and Seoul Mayor to Meet Tomorrow for Second Talks on Housing Supply at Yongsan Park

Minister of Land, Infrastructure and Transport Kim Yun-deok and Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon will meet tomorrow morning at an undisclosed location in Seoul to discuss plans for supplying housing utilizing Yongsan Park.

This meeting follows their first encounter on the 20th. During the previous session, both sides confirmed differences in their positions regarding plans to supply housing for young adults and newlyweds in parts of Yongsan Park, and agreed to meet again to continue discussions.

Following the previous meeting, Minister Kim told reporters, "We confirmed our differing positions and agreed to meet next week to continue our discussions."

While Minister Kim maintains the stance that limited housing supply is possible by utilizing sites within Yongsan Park that have already been damaged or previously used for residential purposes, Mayor Oh opposes housing supply, arguing that the green spaces and park functions of Yongsan Park must be preserved.
