The following are distinctive characteristics in land readjustment by Japanese urban developers under the rule of Japanese imperialism. The original purpose of Kyeongseong Street planning was to develop in the central part of city, however, its purposed changed to develop the suburbs and move Korean residents to the suburbs. To be able to reach this purpose, Japanese government (city development) put emphasis on ideal suburb living by providing examples of living in suburbs culture villages. In addition, the government changed the policy so that the decision can be made by city developers, not by landowners to policy forcefully. Nevertheless, due to the rate of decrease, ideal suburbs culture villages were not possible to form, and because of possible 33.3㎡ was over 30% of the total land, a traditional Korean style houses were built. As a result, it became an emergence of slum again and led to a redevelopment. To build the house that has 198㎡ to 330㎡ space to fulfill their tastes, Japanese city developers built the houses in a block of land in west-east streets. |
