'Luone Jiwell City Mall' Launches Leasing, Backed by Demand from Approximately 10,000 Households

What is the most important factor in forming a commercial district? It is the hinterland demand. The more potential customers there are, the higher the possibility of generating profits, so a stable commercial district can only be established if there is abundant hinterland demand nearby.

Located in Luwon City, Seo-gu, Incheon, ‘Luwon Jiwel City Mall’ is well-equipped with such hinterland demand, making it expected to become a representative commercial district of the area. This commercial facility consists of a total floor area of 20,917㎡, with 144 units spread across basement level 1 to ground level 3.

In particular, ‘Luwon Jiwel City Mall’ is a commercial facility within the Luwon Jiwel City Prugio apartment complex, securing a fixed demand from 778 resident households. It also serves as the hinterland demand for approximately 16,000 residential units (including planned complexes) within walking distance, such as SK Leaders View 1st Phase, Luwon e-Pyeonhansesang Haneulchae, Luwon City Central Town, Luwon City Daesung Berhill, Luwon City Pradium, and Luwon Hoban Verdiem.

As a commercial facility near Gajeong Station on Incheon Subway Line 2, it is also easy to attract floating population from the surrounding area. According to the urban railway transport performance data from Incheon Transit Corporation (as of November 2022), the average daily number of users at Gajeong Station reaches 11,178. With Bongodaero and Gajeong-ro nearby, accessibility by car is excellent, and it is well connected to a wide-area transportation network including the Seo-Incheon IC of Gyeongin Expressway, Incheon International Airport Expressway, Seoul Ring Expressway, and the Metropolitan Area 2nd Ring Expressway (Incheon-Gimpo).

Significant development projects that will increase future value are also scheduled one after another. The extension of Line 7 to Cheongna, connecting Luwon City to Cheongna International City (planned for 2027), is expected to open within walking distance. Near the complex, the 2nd Incheon City Hall (scheduled for completion in 2025) and Incheon Regional Tax Office (scheduled for completion in 2026) are under construction, and once opened, the hinterland demand is expected to increase further.

Thanks to the abundant hinterland demand, ‘Luwon Jiwel City Mall’ has already secured the entry of various brand stores. According to on-site officials, the commercial facility has confirmed the entry of diverse businesses including financial institutions such as NongHyup and Saemaeul Geumgo, beauty shops, Baskin Robbins, and specialty coffee shops. In addition, CGV, the only cinema in Luwon City, is preparing to open, which is expected to significantly boost customer attraction in the future.

Moreover, ‘Luwon Jiwel City Mall’ has been designed to optimize demand inflow. It features an open design exposed on three sides, and a plaza measuring 100m in length and 20m in width on the first floor of the shopping area to increase the dwell time of incoming customers and enhance visibility and customer attraction. A three-dimensional public pedestrian deck crossing the commercial land of Luwon City from south to north has also been installed to improve accessibility. Additionally, the parking lot is located on the ground floor to provide convenient movement and parking environment for visitors, and the parking spaces are wider than those in existing commercial facilities, with a width of 2.5m, 20cm wider than usual.

An on-site official stated, “There are many factors that can stably secure demand, making Luwon Jiwel City Mall a place where all tenants can be satisfied,” adding, “With various brand stores already confirmed to enter, the commercial district is expected to form rapidly, and it is anticipated to become a landmark commercial district representing Luwon City.”
