Abstract

This study explores strategies to enhance tenant participation and promote social integration in mixed-tenure housing complexes in South Korea. Since the 2000s, public rental housing supply has increased, but social exclusion of rental tenants remains a concern. To mitigate segregation, the government has encouraged mixed-tenure developments integrating owner-occupied and rental units. However, governance challenges persist, as resident councils are often dominated by owners, and tenant representation is weak or inconsistent. The lack of on-site public housing personnel further reinforces unequal decision-making structures. To address these issues, the study combines legal and institutional reviews with empirical analysis based on 20 field investigations and an online survey of 8,995 residents across 35 LH-developed mixed-tenure complexes, yielding 1,181 valid responses (13% response rate). Results reveal key barriers to tenant participation, including unequal representation, inadequate institutional support, and biased conflict resolution systems. The study proposes reforms to strengthen participatory governance, ensure fair tenant representation, and improve management transparency. These measures aim to foster inclusive community relations and equitable governance structures, contributing to broader policy discussions on using mixed-tenure housing as a foundation for sustainable social integration in Korea.
