The number of young single-person households is consistently increasing in South Korea, as in Sweden where the most common type of household is the single-person household. Housing is the key to the transition of young adults to adulthood and it can affect their quality of life and economic security throughout their lifetime. However, young people have encountered a similar housing problem in Sweden and South Korea, countries with different social, cultural, and political backgrounds. This study explores the policy implications garnered from Sweden for establishing housing policies for young single-person households in South Korea by investigating the difference between the housing policies in Sweden and South Korea and the rental housing provisions for young single-person households. The policy implications for single-person households in South Korea are, first, increasing the supply of rental housing and easing housing support requirements to provide housing to more young people as an alternative to increasing the universality of housing welfare policies. Second, providing the applicants' with applications and contracts on a single platform through an online integrated housing support system can be expected to improve operational efficiency and provide better convenience to residents. Third, a method of supplying a variety of housing to each region through regional integrated dormitory supply utilizing an integrated system, and satisfying the demands of the housing consumers, can be considered to establish an effective housing policy.
