  • "1st Generation Gangnam Real Estate Rich!"
    It was in the late '70s that large apartments began to be built on the land that used to be orchards and vegetable gardens. The 6,300-generation apartment was a large unit of 108-270 square meters, so it wasn't a residential area for the common people in the first place. It was enough to attract the attention of the rich, and as soon as it was sold, the price doubled. This is where the Gangnam real estate craze began.
    As the popularity of apartments soared, senior government officials, politicians and journalists were punished for illegally obtaining the apartment. Rather, this incident has raised the reputation of Apgujeong Hyundai Apartment and established itself as a rich neighborhood representing Gangnam.
    Even now, there are many rich and powerful people living in this apartment complex, including chaebol chairmen, lawmakers, and ministers. There are countless professors, judges, prosecutors, and doctors, and top-class tv broadcasters such as Yoo Jae-seok, Kang Ho-dong, Kim Yong-man, and Noh Hong-chul live in large units of four bedrooms.
    Although the exterior is old because it was built decades ago, most houses have very luxurious interior. This apartment is about to be rebuilt, and after the construction, it will emerge as the most luxurious apartment complexes in Korea.

    ⭐️by "Korea JoongAng Daily" July 22, 2016
    A realtor surnamed Kim in Apgujeong-dong, southern Seoul, one of the country’s most luxurious residential neighborhoods, has recently been getting more calls from customers interested in buying apartments in the area. The problem is, he can’t find any units to offer.
    Even when he does have one up for sale, the deal often fails to reach a final agreement because the landlords often end up asking for a much higher price than initially offered.
    “The apartments [in Apgujeong] have seen their selling price increase 100 million won [$88,000] compared to two months ago,” Kim said. “But the landlords, expecting an additional rise on the price, have decided not to sell.”
    When news of the government’s redevelopment plan first surfaced in May, sales in Apgujeong grew sharply, and so did the prices. It was a stark contrast to other redevelopment projects in the Gangnam area, where popularity has been waning due to strong government regulations on loans in those projects.
    According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government, apartments sold in Apgujeong last month amounted to 79 units, a 46 percent increase compared to May. Additionally, the number of apartments sold in June was twice the average of 32 units sold during the same month between 2010 and 2015. As a result, the average price of apartments in Apgujeong has gone up 1.76 percent, higher than the 0.82 percent increase in May.
    When the Korean government started developing south of the Han River in the mid-1970s, Apgujeong quickly grew to become the wealthiest neighborhood in the area. But 20 years later, it gave up its No. 1 spot to neighboring Banpo-dong, largely because the apartments were getting old and uncomfortable.
    As a result, residents sought to redevelop the buildings in 2006, but several attempts to launch a project failed, largely due to conflict between apartment owners and the Seoul government. The city government wanted residents to donate 25 to 30 percent of the redeveloped complexes to the city in hopes of installing public facilities like recreational parks. The apartment owners refused, concerned about the lost potential profit from giving the land up for public use.
    Market experts say once Apgujeong gets its facelift, it will likely reclaim its status as the country’s wealthiest neighborhood, currently held by Banpo-dong and Gaepo-dong.
    The project, however, is still in its early stages and faces several obstacles. Industry experts speculate that it will take 10 years for the redevelopment to be completed. The long process will include the formation of a union by apartment owners to oversee the project and obtain government approval.

    For those who don't know much about the place, Apgujeong-dong is the most expensive neighborhood in South Korea, purely based on the land price. The prices of the apartment complexes have inreased more since the time this video was taken. As of now, they cost more than about *_120,000,000 krw/3.3m²_* , which is about *_100k ~ 120k usd/3.3m²_* . Currently, the whole neighborhood is under the plan to reconstruct the apartment complexes. These apartments had the plan to reconstruct ever since the early 2000s, but the South Korean government and the Seoul mayor had been restricting it for a very long time, worrying that it would greatly impact the real-estate market (However, I personally believe that those restrictions eventually ended up being a better decision since the mayor is now retired (he committed suicide back in 2020), the mayor who had been limiting the heights of the houses near the Han river only up to 35 floors, and the president Moon Jae-in, the president who also had been blocking the reconstruction developments, had finished his term). There are several apartment complexes in Apgujeong-dong, built by 3 different companies--Hyundai, Misung, and Hanyang. The prices right now are mostly the land price itself, since the apartments are very old and worn. It is expected that the price of apartments in this neighborhood will eventually rise to *_200,000,000 krw/3.3m²_* when the reconstruction finishes; that is about *_163k ~ 200k usd/3.3m²_* . Apgujeong-dong is a very unique neighborhood in South Korea since no other neighborhoods in South Korea consist only of apartment complexes like Apgujeong-dong. Many famous Korean celebrities are living in/possess the apartment in this neighborhood, including Korea's no.1 show host, Yoo Jae Suk, another famous show host Kang Ho Dong, K-pop boy group Superjunior's Choi Siwon, one of the most famous Korean entertainers Noh Hong Cheol, one of the most famous Korean actresses Kim Hee-ae, and more. You can also see a few singer trainees living in the apartment complex, especially those located on the right side of the neighborhood because the SM entertainment building is nearby.
    These apartment complexes being built in Apgujeong-dong marked the start of the development of the Gangnam district, the district in which the Apgujeong-dong neighborhood is located. The center of Seoul and the most populous region in Seoul used to be the Northern side of the Han river until the early 1970s when the Apgujeong-dong apartment complexes started to be built. The northern region of Seoul looked unorganized since it was developed without any specific plans and more and more people came into Seoul to live and work as South Korea's economy grew, so the South Korean government felt the need to increase the population capacity by increasing the boundaries of Seoul, which was to include the Southern side of the Han river. As you might notice by looking at the South Korean map, the Southern side of the river is tidier and divided up equally with straight roads while the Northern side of the river is more curvy and divided into random shapes. Since then, more and more people started to move to the Southern side of the river and Gangnam eventually became the new wealthy region. It has been maintaining its fame until now, and it is believed that it will continue to symbolize wealth in the far future too.

    I'm surprised so many rich people live there and the management doesn't even bother to pressure wash or repaint the exterior. Those upper floor concrete bannisters were covered in mold, ew. The paint was chipping on the front of the building by the stairs. Why not do a little upkeep? 11:22 look at all the bird poop and mold! I'd demand more for my money.

      They don’t do upkeep because instead they just break down and rebuild the entire building. So people buying these “old” places are hoping that their building is up for redevelopment soon.
