- Gongppa TV's 'Finding the Perfect Silver Town for Me' Seminar Successfully Concluded in Two Sessions
- KB Golden Life Care Leads Demand-Driven Silver Town Selection Through 'Pyeongchang County' Experience
On the 9th and 16th of last month, YouTuber GongppaTV successfully held the seminar "Gongppa Seminar" for prospective residents interested in Silver Towns.
This seminar was organized to provide an in-depth understanding of Silver Towns and to help consumers choose the optimal Silver Town that suits their individual circumstances. The seminar compared facilities, services, and costs of Silver Towns, enabling participants to make selections based on their needs and conditions.
Participants were also given the opportunity to experience Pyeongchang County firsthand. The experience included touring the living room, rooftop garden, meal tasting, healthcare room, and spa, allowing attendees to vividly feel the living environment of the Silver Town by directly experiencing various facilities.
One attendee who actually participated in the seminar said, "I learned a lot of information about Silver Towns, and above all, it was great to be able to experience the actual facilities," adding, "GongppaTV truly fulfilled the role of a Silver Town guide."
In particular, this seminar was ideal not only for those preparing for old age but also for children who wish to bring their parents to a Silver Town. It provided detailed information that was limited in YouTube videos and allowed participants to understand the surrounding location. Especially, Pyeongchang County is located in Pyeongchang-dong, backed by Bukhansan Mountain, offering a sense of relaxation while being centrally located in Seoul, making it convenient for children to visit without burden.
A representative from KB Golden Life Care said, "We arranged on-site experiences to help participants gain more confidence in their choices by experiencing actual life in a Silver Town," adding, "Since Pyeongchang County offers high-quality facilities and various well-being services, it provided participants with a good opportunity to make a sound choice for their retirement preparation."
GongppaTV plans to continue holding seminars and experience programs that provide diverse information about Silver Towns in the future. Based on the positive responses from this seminar, they plan to support more consumers in selecting the Silver Town that suits them by reflecting specific cases and the latest trends.
Meanwhile, Pyeongchang County is the first Silver Town introduced by KB Golden Life Care, which opened at the end of last year. It is a project that incorporates all the know-how accumulated over seven years since 2017 in the nursing care business. It has no upper age limit for elderly residents and provides safe and comfortable housing facilities along with professional senior care services, making it very popular among children supporting their elderly parents.
The biggest barrier to moving into a Silver Town?the high initial deposit?has been reduced. The move-in deposit can be selected starting from 30 million KRW. Compared to the typical deposits of 400 million to 900 million KRW for major Silver Towns in Seoul, this is a very reasonable amount. Deposit options include 230 million KRW and 330 million KRW, allowing residents to increase the deposit according to their financial situation to reduce monthly payments.
Various premium community facilities have been provided to ensure residents enjoy a comfortable and cozy life. These include a movie theater for enjoying films, a luxury spa for healing body and mind, and the KB Restaurant offering balanced healthy meals, allowing seniors to enjoy a leisurely healthy lifestyle within the facility.
Additionally, there is a healing room equipped with massage devices, a healthcare room for regular health management, a program room for emotional bonding among residents, and a fitness center with a spacious indoor track. These facilities are designed with seniors' convenience in mind, minimizing movement by arranging all amenities on one floor so even seniors with mobility issues can easily access them.
Special benefits are also being offered until December this year. The mandatory contract period, which can be a burden for prospective residents, has been temporarily removed, attracting significant interest. If residents need to move out after moving in, they can do so anytime by applying three months before their desired move-out date.
Residents receive 60 mandatory meals free of charge for one month after moving in, along with convenient move-in celebration items such as a washing machine and an entrance chair. Various other events are also being held, and detailed information can be found on the website.
