Abstract After Jeju 4.3, the middle mountainous region of Jeju Island in the 1960s and 1970s promoted pilot complexes and pioneer complexes. This project was not just a village restoration project. It was a project to build a sustainable ideal city by utilizing Jeju middle mountainous region. Revealing the original forms and characteristics of "pilot complexes" and "pioneer complexes" is very important in understanding the urban planning of modern Jeju. Through literature research and GIS analysis, this study aims to reveal the current status and characteristics of 'pilot complexes' and 'pioneer complexes' constructed in Jeju middle mountainous region from an urban perspective. We found that the pilot complexes were located in the northwestern and south-east areas of Jeju Island, which had completely different climates. On the contrary, we know that the Pioneer complexes are concentrated in the north-west. We also found that pilot and pioneer complexes were located at particular elevations above sea level, respectively, and that pioneer complexes were located at higher altitudes. As a result, we were able to reveal that pilot complexes were aiming to streamline agricultural structures. On the other hand, it was shown that Pioneer Complexes considered reorganizing the urban structure of Jeju Island through the migration of residents. We were also able to reveal that pilot complexes had geographically different conditions and that economic crops suitable for their locations were subsequently sought. Meanwhile, Pioneer complexes selected the crop first, looking for a suitable location.
