To mark World Habitat Day, the district organized the lectures to help young people with limited housing information and experience, including university students, young adults entering the workforce, and newlyweds, understand housing subscriptions and lease agreements and prepare for stable housing.

On Oct. 15, real estate consultant Park Jimin will speak on “Solutions for the 20s to 40s in the Housing Subscription Market,” explaining basic concepts of housing subscriptions, information on major developments scheduled for sale, how to prepare, and practical tips.

On Oct. 29, real estate attorney Shim Junseop will speak on “Preventing and Responding to Jeonse Fraud for Young Adults Entering the Workforce.” The lecture will offer step-by-step guidance on recent fraud schemes and warning signs, what to check before signing a contract, how to protect the deposit after moving in, and initial steps to take if victimized.

Both lectures will begin at 7 p.m. in the Education Room of the Creative Education Promotion Team on the second floor of Seongdong-gu Office. They are open to young people who live or work in the district, with 50 participants recruited in advance for each session. Applications can be submitted through the quick reservation service on the district office website. The district holds housing rights-related education programs and forums every October to mark World Habitat Day.

Mayor Yoo Bohwa said, “I hope these lectures will help young people ease their vague anxieties about housing and prepare for a stable future.”
