Kim Sook's Jeju Home: Heritage Rules Eased
Broadcaster Kim Sook's house in Jeju Island is scheduled to be removed from the National Folk Cultural Heritage Designated Area. This is expected to ease the strict regulations that have been an obstacle to renovating the house she acquired 14 years ago.
It has been confirmed that Kim Sook's Jeju Island house site is included in the de-listing target in the "Jeju Seong-eup Village Designated Area and Permitted Standards Adjustment Plan" recently announced by the Cultural Heritage Administration.

The main content of the adjustment plan is to reduce the designated area from the existing 794,213.3㎡ (1,004 parcels) to approximately 60%, or 477,081㎡ (666 parcels). The Cultural Heritage Administration has re-established the area based on the changed environment, including the village's old paths and stone walls, and plans to finalize the official notice after a 30-day opinion gathering period. Notably, Kim Sook's entire residential land of approximately 230 pyeong (760㎡) has been included in the list of areas to be removed from the designated zone.

Once the regulations are finalized, Kim Sook's house will be moved from a 'cultural heritage designated area' to a 'permitted standards area'. While minimal management will be maintained, it is expected that the autonomy in exercising private property rights, such as construction or repairs, will increase.
Previously, on the tvN program 'Unpredictable' aired on the 20th, the difficulties faced due to the house being tied to the designated area were highlighted. Unlike ordinary houses, Kim Sook's house was located within a national heritage designated area, requiring an application for 'permission for alteration of appearance' and approval from the Cultural Heritage Administration. There were significant costs and procedural difficulties due to the restriction that only experts with national qualifications could carry out the construction. There was also a rule that external designs must maintain Jeju's basalt stone walls and thatched roofs.
