Urban development in Korea has undergone a rapid and radical transformation in the way cities have been planned and produced and consequently how their people are housed and the lifestyles they conduct. From once strictly hierarchical and patriarchal rural communities, comprising groups of courtyard Hanoak houses, Korean families of today predominantly reside in dense concentrations of monotonous, but highly desired, clusters of high-rise apartments. This article will take the reader on a tumultuous journey through strategic phases in Korean urban development including parasitic landlordism, rural land reform, industrialization, publicly directed private development, and more recently the speculative housing and government measures to grow a public rental housing sector. |
