Result of internet forum investigation and a thought

It took 4 days for me to scour internet forums dedicated to the gated apartment complex  and to store opinions related to gating. Originally I thought it would be finished within a day but I turned out to be very wrong. There was a surprising amount of exchange on gating in the forum. It would have taken more if I had had access to restricted area of the forum.
The result is a 143 page long word document including images as well as text. There has been extensive talks in the forum on vandalism, measures to protect the apartment complex, execution methods of gating and evaluation of gating.
The main idea that I've got from this extensive information is that Korean planning system of apartment complexes have  problems in harmonizing private and public interests. The apartment complex in question has a central road which can be used as a shortcut for outside residents to use subway and commercial area. Although the public interest of this road could be expected from the design stage, this road was left in the very center of private territory. Unfortunately, the residents couldn't tolerate extra maintenance caused by vandalism of outsiders and increased transit traffic. The result was the first case of gating of a large apartment complex in Korea.
The main culprit of gating in this case seems to be the planning practice of annihilating public roads and to create a super sized private block. No one wants to make detours especially in on foot while the occupiers of super blocks don't want presence of outsiders in their private domain. Allowing super sized private islands can't help creating conflict between the public and private interests.    

Digging deep into internet for research

Today internet is a well recognized research tool. It provides us formal information such as news and journal articles in an instant. What I have overlooked until today was its role as a provider of informal information.

For example, my case study of a gated apartment complex near Seoul was greatly facilitated by the internet. It provided me answers to the initial questions following to my field trip which were not covered by existing formal information. Residents of the gated apartment complex have exchanged voices on gating in internet forums. The forums effectively store remarks of verbal nature by residents and their leaders which would have been soon forgotten in the pre-internet era. The main answers I extracted from the forums are as follows.

Municipal reaction to the gated apartment complex

Private ownership has been inviolable in Korean planning tradition and Korean land owners have enjoyed more freedom in altering land than in any other developed country. Thus, the Korean government, municipality and court have maintained laissez-faire attitude regarding to gating of private properties. As long as a property belonged to private entities, the public authority didn't do almost anything against gating.

However, complete gating of an apartment complex did alarm the municipality. A local newspaper reported that the city council had decided to cut financial subsidy to gated apartment complexes. Gating of apartment complexes is in infancy in Korea but growing. Will nationwide gating phenomenon provoke similar reactions from the central government?

Observation of a gated apartment complex near Seoul

Date: 2-5 pm, Wednesday, April 24, 2013

Most of the Korean apartment complexes ban non-authorized vehicle access but foot access is usually permitted. However, even the foot access is banned in some apartment complexes, especially smaller ones with less than 5 apartment buildings such as Samseong I-Park in Gangnam District in Seoul.
I went to field trip to observe one of these apartment complexes. The gated apartment complex that I visited is highly unusual because it's quite a big apartment complex having more than 1,000 housing units. Due to its large scale gating, it earned some notoriety from media a couple of years ago. I thought the gating could have been lifted by now but both vehicular and foot accesses are controlled there.

잠실 롯데 세상 (Lotte World!)

잠실역은 롯데역으로 불러야할 정도로 롯데 관련 시설로 둘러싸인 매우 독특한 공간이다. 개발 후 적정한 입주자에게 분양하거나 세를 주는 다른 대형상업시설과는 달리 잠실역 롯데타운은 롯데가 소유하고 롯데계열사만 존재한다.

다음 지도는 BatchGeo로 만들어본 잠실 롯데타운 주변 커피체인(롯데 엔젤리너스, 스타벅스, 커피빈, 카페베네) 분포. 롯데월드와 롯데캐슬을 포함하는 롯데타운 내의 커피숍 영업은 엔젤리너스가 장악하고 있음을 보여주며 현재 빈땅인 제2롯데월드 완공 후에는 9ha에 가까운 광활한 공간도 빨간 풍선만으로 뒤덮일 것으로 예상된다. (카페베네 1개 점포가 예외적으로 롯데월드 지하상가에서 영업하고 있다. 지도를 줌아웃하면 송파구 전체의 분포를 볼 수 있다.)

잠실에는 맥도널드가 없다

단일 사기업의 도심공간지배로 인해 일반인은 잠실역 주변에서 스타벅스와 맥도널드에 갈 수 없는 불편을 겪고 있고, 롯데타운 내 상인들은 롯데에 의해 생존권이 결정되는 아픔을 겪고 있다.

"롯데그룹이 서울 잠실에 대규모 ‘롯데타운’ 조성을 추진 중인 가운데, 롯데쇼핑이 잠실 롯데월드쇼핑몰에 세들어 있는 상인들을 모두 철수시키려고 해 입점 상인들이 강하게 반발하고 나서 파장이 예상된다."
