Eterno Cheongdam is an ultra-luxury residential complex of 29 units located along the Han River in Cheongdam-dong. It has made headlines as the first Asian project by the renowned Spanish architect Rafael Moneo, a recipient of the Pritzker Prize, often called the Nobel Prize of architecture. Raemian Daechi Palace is a representative large-scale new complex in Daechi-dong, while Tower Palace 3 remains a complex that maintains its premium status due to its super-high-rise structure and Han River views, reflecting the ongoing polarization of the market.

According to experts, this week's top 10 transactions highlight a clear preference for consistently high-demand areas such as Gangnam, the Han River waterfront, and Mok-dong, with a focus on medium-to-large sized units. They analyze this as a trend driven by expectations of government tax and loan deregulation for real estate, coupled with the release of properties from multiple-home owners. However, they added that the market overall remains polarized, with price gains concentrated primarily in prime locations as factors like expectations of interest rate cuts, supply shortages, and the scarcity of certain ultra-luxury complexes intersect.
