The Sharp Dunchon Fore," newly established in Dunchon-dong, Gangdong-gu, Seoul, is a complex remodeled from the Dunchon Hyundai 1st Apartments, which were completed in 1984, and was finished in October 2024 after a total construction period of 38 months. As the second remodeling complex completed by POSCO E&C following "Gaepo The Sharp Tree," it was reborn from the original 5 buildings of 14 floors and 498 households to 8 buildings ranging from 2 underground to 14 ground floors with a total of 572 households, serving as a representative case of urban residential innovation that transforms aging downtown housing into new value.
The Sharp Dunchon Fore is a pioneering case that added new buildings by constructing 3 additional separate buildings, a first among remodeling complexes in South Korea. This enabled the general sale of 74 households, and the subscription results in March 2024 recorded an average competition rate of 93:1, drawing significant attention as an alternative for supplying new housing in the city center.
This project also demonstrated advancements in remodeling construction from a technical perspective. POSCO E&C precisely analyzed the existing framework using "3D laser scanning" and minimized design and construction errors through "BIM (Building Information Modeling)" simulations. Furthermore, the company introduced the "top-down method," which allows for the simultaneous construction of underground and ground structures, effectively shortening the construction period and reducing noise.
