Today I bring you a story about SH Corporation, a builder of eco-friendly housing for the middle and low-income class. There are about 6 million apartment units nationwide. Apartments have served to meet the housing needs of Korean people by making an efficient use of small plots of land. However, the prevalence of apartment buildings gave rise to a number of problems, one of which is the noise from upstairs apartments. Having recognized the seriousness of noise emanating from floors above, the government mandated that the floor between the apartments be at least 210 millimeters thick, but disputes between neighbors over noise still continue. But now SH Corporation recently developed an eco-friendly method to dramatically reduce the noise level between floors. Here’s senior researcher Kim Hyung-geun of SH Corporation to tell us about the company.
