SEOUL, Oct. 29 (Yonhap) -- The government plans to designate six new public housing zones in Gyeonggi Province, surrounding Seoul, to build more than 76,700 homes as part of efforts to boost the housing supply, the land ministry said Thursday.

The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced the six candidate sites as a follow-up to its August plan to supply 100,000 new homes.

The proposed sites are located in Gimpo, Guri, Hanam, Uijeongbu and Goyang in Gyeonggi Province, all within 5 kilometers of Seoul's boundaries and offering relatively easy access to the capital.

The ministry said the sites are located in greenbelt areas where environmental conservation value has already been diminished, making them suitable for systematic development.

Land Minister Hong Jee-sun stressed the need to expand the housing supply in areas favored by young people and newlyweds, pledging government support to accelerate construction.

首尔，10月29日（韩联社）——韩国国土交通部周四表示，政府计划在首尔周边京畿道指定六个新的公共住房区，建造超过76700套住房，以增加住房供应。

国土交通省公布了六个候选地块，这是继8月份公布的提供10万套新住房计划之后的又一举措。

拟建地点位于京畿道金浦、九里、河南、议政府和高阳，均在首尔边界 5 公里范围内，前往首都交通相对便利。

该部表示，这些地块位于绿化带地区，环境保育价值已经降低，因此适合进行系统开发。

国土安全部长洪智善强调，需要扩大年轻人和新婚夫妇喜爱地区的住房供应，并承诺政府将提供支持以加快建设。
