Impact of building density and sky view factor on pedestrian-level wind environment in Seoul's urban street canyons
How residential environments affect depressive mood and stress among young adults in South Korea
Analyzing the Factors that Affect and Predict Employment Density Using Spatial Machine Learning
There is a regional disparity in the employment density of Seoul. Considering problems such as traffic congestion and jobs‐housing imbalance, it is important to understand the spatial pattern of employment density and identify key influencing factors to determine the changes in the future urban spatial structure. This study analyzed employment density in each region of Seoul to derive important predictors. We examined the spatial patterns of empl…
Novel CNN-Based Approach for Reading Urban Form Data in 2D Images
Artificial intelligence (AI) has demonstrated its ability to complete complex tasks in various fields. In urban studies, AI technology has been utilized in some limited domains, such as control of traffic and air quality. This study uses AI to better understand diverse urban studies data through a novel approach that uses a convolutional neural network (CNN). In this study, a building outline in the form of a two-dimensional image is used with it…
Rethinking developmental state intervention in the housing supply of a transitional economy
Impact of Innovation City Projects on National Balanced Development in South Korea
Innovation City projects, aimed at balanced national development in South Korea, have relocated public institutions from the Seoul metropolitan area to provinces, decentralizing population and economic functions, over the past decade. This study measured changes in regional centrality (the central and local location or hierarchy of objects in a network) at the 14 cities where Innovation City projects were constructed. Commuter Origin-Destination …
Elements that affect foreign tourists’ satisfaction
City tourism is one of the fastest growing industries worldwide. City tourism based on the attractiveness of the city is an important policy objective to secure competitiveness and sustainability of the city. However, as a city attracts more tourists, this uniqueness tends to decrease with the introduction of global corporate franchises as well as the construction of standardised buildings. Policymakers focus more on building hotels and shopping …
Does Young Adults’ Neighborhood Environment Affect Their Depressive Mood? Insights from the 2019 Korean Community Health Survey
The rates of depression among young adults have been increasing in high-income countries and have emerged as a social problem in South Koreans aged 19-34. However, the literature is unclear on whether the neighborhood environment that young adults live in affects the onset and severity of their depressive symptoms. This study analyzed data from the 2019 Korean Community Health Survey (KCHS) using the Tobit model to identify the effect of the neig…
Novel trends in SNS customers in food and beverage patronage
Driven by the development of information and communications technology as well as the spread of social networking services (SNS), access to spatial information has changed the way people select sites or areas. This study determines whether new urban place selection—that is, the selection of places in a way that differs from the classic locational principle of land use—occurs via SNS by examining changes in the location of Food and Beverage(F&B) r…
The era of Seoul's rapid growth (1960s–1970s)
This study aims to analyze the role of ex-military mayors in the development of Seoul after the Korean war (1950–1953). The six mayors of Seoul who took office under President Park (1961–1979) and the rapid development of South Korea, demonstrated excessive loyalty and drive to achieve policies established by Park's administration. It boded well for South Korea that three mayors, under the Park regime, had a military background. As a developing n…
Evolution of urban development and regeneration funding programs in German cities
Germany looks back at a rapidly changing developmental period in which the western part of the country experienced economic prosperity during the 1950s, whereas the eastern part experienced a different start. This situation persisted till the German reunification in 1989. After reunification, Germany's policies were similar to those of the post-WWII period—it focused on the most important needs such as social injustice in cities and quarters and …
