President Yoon's decision to sell his only residence shortly after taking office is viewed as an unprecedented move in South Korean presidential history.
President Yoon Suk-yeol has put up his apartment for sale in Bundang-gu, Seongnam-si, marking an unusual case where a sitting president sells their home in the early part of their term. The Blue House announced that the apartment, co-owned with First Lady Kim Hye-kyeong, was listed below market value. This decision is seen as an effort to demonstrate his commitment to normalizing the real estate market. Yoon stated on social media that as the top person responsible for housing policy, he felt he should lead by example rather than serve as a target for political criticism regarding housing issues.
