Top 10 Most Active Regions for "Sharing" Revealed by Danggeun
On June 13, Danggeun, a local community platform, announced the top 10 regions nationwide where "sharing" has been most active over the past year.
According to Danggeun, Mulgeum-eup in Yangsan-si, Gyeongnam, was ranked as the neighborhood with the highest number of sharing posts for the third consecutive year. Songdo-dong in Yeonsu-gu, Incheon, and Baebang-eup in Asan-si, Chungnam, maintained their positions as second and third for the second year in a row, confirming them as areas where sharing is consistently active. The rest of the top 10 included Bongdam-eup in Hwaseong-si, Gyeonggi; Okjeong-dong in Yangju-si, Gyeonggi; Sillim-dong in Gwanak-gu, Seoul; Jeonggwan-eup in Gijang-gun, Busan; Buldang-dong in Seobuk-gu, Cheonan-si, Chungnam; Byeollae-dong and Dasan-dong in Namyangju-si, Gyeonggi.
Okjeong-dong and Dasan-dong newly entered the rankings this year, climbing 8 and 7 spots, respectively, compared to the same period last year. Okjeong-dong is gaining attention as a new residential area for people in their 30s and 40s, while Dasan-dong is known for its expanding urban infrastructure due to ongoing city development. With urban planning and frequent moves, it is presumed that active sharing among neighbors has increased.
The categories where sharing was most active were, in order: furniture and interior, baby and children, daily necessities and kitchenware, other secondhand goods, home appliances, sports and leisure, hobbies, games and music, tickets and vouchers, pet supplies, and digital devices.
A Danggeun representative stated, "Danggeun is taking the lead in building a healthy local community where trust among neighbors is established and environmental protection is promoted through sharing, going beyond simply exchanging goods." The representative added, "We hope that more users will participate in sharing through Danggeun, spread positive influence to each other, and work together to create a warmer neighborhood."
