In the Busan real estate market, which is characterized by its mountainous terrain, flatland apartments are becoming increasingly rare and valuable. Amidst this trend, Doosan Engineering & Construction is drawing significant attention with the introduction of its high-end apartment complex, "Doosan We’ve The Zenith Daeyeon," located on flat ground in Daeyeon-dong, Nam-gu, Busan.

According to statistical data from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport’s Statistics Nuri cadastral database, as of last year, mountainous terrain (forest land) accounted for 43.89% of Busan's total area. This is roughly double the mountain area proportion of Seoul (22.54%). Due to this high percentage of forested land, residential sites on flat terrain within Busan are relatively scarce. Furthermore, the Busan Development Institute’s report, "Development and Typological Analysis of Busan Vacant House SOS Index," released last year, notes: "Busan’s unique natural environment, surrounded by mountains and the sea, results in a shortage of flatland."

This geographic scarcity is also reflected in apartment prices. According to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport's actual transaction price disclosure system, on July 7, an 84㎡ unit in "Myeongnyun IPARK (Complex 1)" located on flat terrain in Dongnae-gu, Busan, was sold for 700 million won, marking an increase of about 50 million won compared to the beginning of the year. By contrast, a unit of the same size in "Myeongnyun 2nd IPARK," situated nearby, was traded in May for the upper 500 million won range, demonstrating a difference of more than 100 million won in market price depending on the complex’s geographical setting.

An industry official stated, "In the Busan real estate market, a complex’s geographic characteristics are regarded as an important factor that affects not only residential convenience but also future asset value," adding, "In particular, flatland complexes with excellent accessibility and walking environments tend to attract strong demand for owner-occupied residence, which leads to relatively stable market performance even amidst volatility."

Flatland locations that combine pleasant walking conditions with excellent infrastructure accessibility are expected to lead real estate price trends in the area going forward.

Against this backdrop, "Doosan We’ve The Zenith Daeyeon," located in a prime site in Nam-gu, Busan, is capturing the interest of genuine buyers. This complex, provided by Doosan Engineering & Construction in Daeyeon-dong, Nam-gu, Busan, stands out as a high-end residential project built on rare flat terrain in the city. It consists of two buildings, with five basement levels and up to 42 floors above ground, totaling 258 units. Of these, 176 units with exclusive areas of 59 to 84㎡, which are highly preferred by buyers, are being offered for general sale.

The complex’s strong public transport access—within walking distance to Motgol Station and Daeyeon Station on Busan Subway Line 2—synergizes with its flatland location to maximize convenience. Main urban centers in Busan are also easily reachable via Suyeong-ro, Beonyeong-ro, and UN Pyeonghwa-ro.

The area boasts excellent school districts, with Daeyeon Elementary School, Daeyeon Middle School, Daeyeon High School, and Yemoon Girls' High School all within walking distance or nearby. It also benefits from Daedeok-dong’s academy district, Nam-gu Library, and major universities including Pukyong National University and Kyungsung University, providing a robust educational environment. Administrative, medical, and shopping infrastructure—such as Nam-gu Office, Motgol Market, Seongso Hospital, and Koryo Hospital—are concentrated nearby, offering convenient living immediately upon move-in. Moreover, pleasant urban green spaces like Urongsan Park, UN Sculpture Park, and Peace Park are close at hand.

The area’s future value is also considered high. The Daeyeon-dong and Uam-dong districts are slated for large-scale redevelopment, transforming into a new residential town with approximately 12,000 homes. Their proximity to the Busan International Financial Center (BIFC) in Munhyeon-dong and the North Port redevelopment area is expected to create ample demand from future residents.

The complex will reach a maximum height of 42 floors above ground, forming an expansive skyline. Especially notable is the introduction of a distinctive pattern design characteristic of the "We’ve The Zenith" brand, as well as a curtain wall-look facade, offering a differentiated exterior befitting a premium residential product. Through these features, the complex is expected to become a new landmark in Daeyeon-dong, one of Nam-gu’s most prestigious neighborhoods, further enhancing residents’ satisfaction and sense of pride.

Meanwhile, the gallery for "Doosan We’ve The Zenith Daeyeon" is scheduled to open in Munhyeon-dong, Nam-gu, Busan, on July 31, 2026.
