ABSTRACT

The aims of this study are to show the pattern of spatial development spillover in the case of Korea during last decade, and to discuss the policy rationale of the relocation of public institutions which aims to reduce regional gaps based on the spatial spillover pattern. It is found that development pressures of Seoul areas inflated by a rapid economic growth already spread over their hinterlands. Similar phenomenon was observed in other major metropolitan areas. However, the spillover is the most distinct in the case of the Seoul metropolitan region(SMR). The pattern illustrates that the development pressures shift from Seoul to Gyeonggy province at first, and then from Gyeonggy to further south -- towards the location of the administrative complex city. Based on these findings, this study argues that the plan may accelerate on-going development shifts.
