Focusing on Seoul, the capital of Korea, this report will analyze the current
demographic and housing trends by using census data from the Korean Statistical
Information Service (KOSIS), and then suggest recommendations for the direction of the
future housing market of Korea based on the analyzed trends. Since Seoul is a center of
the Korean housing markets and the housing market of Seoul accounts for the largest part
of the national housing market, this report can support the future housing markets and
policies both at national and local level. In the public sector it can be used as
fundamental resources to establish long-term housing policies for the future. Moreover,
in the private sector this report will be helpful for developers and contractors as an
indicator for long-range housing business plans. Due to current demographic problems
such as low birthrates and population aging, Korea cannot escape the demographic
changes, and consequently these changes might affect the future housing market
regarding housing supply and demand. / text
