Recently, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport announced an administrative notice of an amendment to the 'Building Standards for Multi-Living Facilities,' which would allow the installation of bathtubs in goshiwon, which were banned, and abolish the obligation to install desks, in order to relax regulations unrelated to safety as goshiwon are increasingly used as residential spaces for single-person households. However, ,,,under the current law, goshiwon are defined as 'businesses that provide facilities for learners to study within partitioned rooms and provide accommodation or lodging,' so the amendment was argued that this would contradict the original design intent of goshiwon. In particular, the reaction was cold, especially among young people, who said, "If an adult can barely stretch out and lie on a single bed, the space disappears, and isn't it like they're trying to cram in a bathtub that is well over 1 meter wide and vertical?" and criticized, "This looks like typical 'desk administration' prepared without actually visiting a goshiwon." In a cramped 1.5-pyeong goshiwon room, leaving out a place to lie down and putting a desk The idea that installing bathtubs in the space would improve the living environment has led to criticism that actual needs for cooking, ventilation, soundproofing, and fire safety are being neglected. Ultimately, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said, "Since various opinions were raised during the administrative notice process, we will review the regulation," ,,, earlier, regarding the ruling party's controversy over 'discarded bus youth housing,' desk administration should now be abolished. Even if you think about it logically, setting up a bathroom in a goshiwon or remodeling an abandoned bus into a means of housing is not an idea???
