Since ancient times, one of the important criteria for choosing a house has been Pungsu-jiri (Korean geomancy). A representative example is ‘Baesanimsu,’ which means having a mountain at the back and water in front. It is said that living in such an area leads to a prosperous life, and it has shown high preference.
Even without looking for old cases, most modern luxury residential complexes are located in such terrains. This can be easily found not only in Seoul but also in the metropolitan area. One of the representative areas is Seopangyo and Daejang District, known for housing many chairmen of leading domestic companies.
In particular, this area is evaluated as a Baesanimsu site of the ‘Biryongsimsu’ type, which resembles a flying dragon seeking water. The Pungsu-jiri of Biryongsimsu means a flying dragon has found water. In Pungsu-jiri, water symbolizes wealth, so Biryongsimsu is considered a prime location where the dragon finds wealth. It is said to mean ‘mountain terrain where great people are born’ and ‘water flow that prevents the outflow of wealth.’ Surrounded by mountains such as Taebongsan and Eungdalsan, and with a closed water inlet, it has an optimal terrain for a prime residential area.
In fact, wealthy individuals who recognized this prime location early settled in the upper part of Daejang District, where the so-called Chairman’s Village, Pangyo Nam Seoul Parkville, is located. From 2018 to recently, complexes such as Pangyo First Hill Prugio, Pangyo The Sharp Forest, and Hillstate Pangyo Elforet have been successfully sold.
As Daejang District receives high attention from a Pungsu-jiri perspective and residential demand continues, ‘Pangyo Dior Nine,’ the ‘last’ private sale complex in Daejang District, has recently attracted attention with its special supply.
Constructed by Angang Construction, ‘Pangyo Dior Nine’ is located in Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do. It consists of 6 basement floors to 10 above-ground floors, with 144 officetel units and 55 commercial facilities. Commercial facilities will be located from the first basement floor to the second floor above ground.
First, the nature-friendly luxurious exterior design catches the eye. The exterior design features various natural textures, and a wide-frame window specialized design secures a pleasant view that is rarely seen in apartment complexes. The residential spaces will also use high-end interiors and finishing materials suitable for a high-end residential product, and customization will be applied to create living spaces reflecting residents’ tastes and personalities.
‘Pangyo Dior Nine’ is said to be located in the most advantageous spot to enjoy the forest zone in Daejang District, which is surrounded by greenery on all four sides. It offers a residential environment where residents can easily enjoy clean nature such as Eungdalsan, Taebongsan, and Seokgicheon, as well as Pangyo Daejang Elementary and Middle Schools and various convenience facilities.
Excellent transportation is also noteworthy. It is easy to access the Yongin-Seoul Expressway via Seobundang IC, and the Seopangyo Tunnel is nearby, allowing smooth movement to the center of Pangyo. Additionally, a bus stop is located right in front of the complex, making public transportation easily accessible.
Pangyo, where this area is located, is expected to have high future value with plans for Seopangyo Station on the Wolgot-Pangyo Line (scheduled for 2026) and Seongnam Station on the GTX-A Line (scheduled for the first half of next year). The Daejang District, where the project site is located, also serves as a residential area with excellent accessibility to Pangyo Techno Valley, so a rise in housing prices is anticipated.
Meanwhile, the model house for Pangyo Dior Nine is planned to be set up in Suji-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do.
