ABSTRACT

Zoning system has been adopted as fundamental means of controlling land use in korea. But zoning has been facing the problem that it is difficult to form urban area positively as desirable city, because many area of korea are formed with no planning. To solve this problem, law introduced District Unit Planning which is a kind of Detailed Planning. District Unit Planning is an integrated system that controls building, land which building is located, road, infrastructure together. District Unit Planning is applied to not only newly developing area but also redevelopment area, and the range of applications is expected to extend farther. However law runs District Unit Planning parallel with zoning system in same area although both are different system each other. And District Unit Planning is applied only in some parts of urban area without systematic connection with total urban planning formulated by the authorities. Imbalance occurs between District Unit Planning area and neighboring area that bas no District Unit Planning, between District Unit Planning area and the whole urban area. Realistically, District Unit Planning is used the means of high-rise and high-density development by developer, that guarantees high profit to him. Theoretically, the main purpose of Detailed Planning is to form urban area totally balanced. Therefore there is need to reform District Unit Planning. It is desirable that District Unit Planning is extended to all urban area and zoning is abolished. If an overall change will not be possible in a short period of time, at least District Unit Planning should be planned in accord with total area plan that includes well-balanced planning over the area and prepared in advance.
