2023 도시설계스튜디오 2 임 저스틴 교수님 – 제주 답사

지난 주 임 저스틴 교수님이 운영하는 도시설계스튜디오 2 수업에서 29 명 학생과 전문가 분들이 2박 3일 일정으로 제주도를 다녀왔습니다. Exploring Jeju-si and Urban Challenges > Jeju-si, situated at the heart of Jeju Island, the most renowned tourist destination in South Korea, has been facing the challenge of a declining local population and a shrinking economy. The issue is crystal clear – the key to sustainable urban planning is not merely catering to tourists but prioritizing the well-being of the local residents. While tourists may come and go, it’s the residents who form the backbone of the city’s vitality and long-term prosperity.
