A residents’ briefing session regarding the Yeomchang Park site in Seoul’s Gangseo District on the afternoon of the 11th failed to commence, collapsing before it even began. This was the first face-to-face meeting with residents held approximately a month after the government designated the Yeomchang Park area (approximately 1,000 households) as a candidate site for new housing supply in its August 13 real estate measures. Residents strongly protested, stating, “The site selection, supply plan, and even the briefing session were all unilaterally communicated without gathering residents’ opinions.”

Protest against puppies type shit.
1. Summary
Local resistance to public housing supply plan intensifies in Seoul. Despite the deployment of police, the resident briefing session on the new public housing plan got cancelled with local officials driven off the site by protestors.
2. How is this related to the sub
(1) NIMBY: DPK-controlled local councils are attacked by local NIMBY protestors for accepting housing supply plan of the national government. The local protestors accused the local officials of being subservient to Lee Jae-Myung’s housing plan, while ignoring local concerns.
Someone needs to make one of those coffee table books full of pictures of riled up NIMBYs all over the world.
