Impacts of Seoul Semi-Industrial zone’s Industrial Agglomeration on Regional Economic Growth

From an economic point of view, urban industry is the foundation of urban growth, and many local governments are trying to maintain urban industry as the decline of urban industry leads to urban decline. The Seoul Metropolitan Government has made various industrial policies centered on quasi-industrial areas where industrial sites can be located, but the demand for lifting them is increasing due to housing supply, public housing, and industrial leakage. Therefore, the Seoul Metropolitan Government has maintained the semi-industrial zone through the total number of semi-industrial zones, but the discussion on the effectiveness of the discussion has yet to be confirmed. Therefore, this study compares the industrial structure and characteristics of semi-industrial zones, and presents suggestions for industrial development and management policies that match the characteristics of semi-industrial zones.
