Driving Factors

The rising demand for modular homes is a major factor influencing the South Korean construction market expansion. Prefabricated homes are another name for modular homes. Unlike a regular house, a modular house is manufactured at an offsite location and then shipped to the required location, where it is assembled and erected. Buyers have the option of incorporating their house designs and specifications. The demand for modular houses has steadily increased in South Korea over the last few years, owing to rising housing rents and the high cost of building new homes. Manufacturers can achieve faster delivery times and higher accuracy with the help of automation. The demand for modular homes in South Korea is expected to skyrocket, particularly among single-parent families. The low cost of these houses in comparison to traditional houses has increased their popularity among students in large cities where renting or buying a house is prohibitively expensive. These factors will boost the South Korean construction market growth during the forecast period.

Restraining Factors

Uncertain macroeconomic conditions are a major hinderance to South Korean construction market growth. The construction industry is heavily influenced by national and regional macroeconomic conditions. Uncertainty about current economic conditions, on the other hand, will hamper the construction industry, as customers may postpone spending in response to tighter credit, a decline in income or asset values, or negative financial news.

In recent years, the number of new housing projects in South Korea has reached its highest point. As a result, public construction activities in the country were restricted. As a consequence, the number of private construction activities will increase during the forecast period.

Based on end users, the South Korean construction market is segmented into residential, non-residential, civil works, and others.
