Recently, controversy surrounding gentrification has kept growing in Korean society. This reflects the failure in maintaining appropriate pace in pursuing regional revitalization and preserving regional identity at the same time. This is why the importance of managing time and maintaining measured pace has been recently stressed in urban management. The introduction of the cultural district policy in 2000 reflected recognition of the importance of time management in urban management, but past 15 years of practice was rather unsuccessful. Against this backdrop, this study aims to point out some limits of current urban management policies and stress the necessity of maintaining appropriate pace in urban management.
