According to the Korea Real Estate Board on the 20th, there were 5,085 applications for the 'Dongtan Dream Forest Nature & Desiang,' which recruited 876 households for special supply the previous day, resulting in a competition rate of 5.8 to 1. The highest number of applicants, 2,258, was for the newlywed special supply. There were 1,211 applicants for the newborn special supply, and 1,153 for the first-time buyer category. This complex is being supplied by TAEYOUNG E&C as part of a private participation public housing project conducted by the Gyeonggi Housing and Urban Corporation (GH).

The A78 block in Dongtan 2 new town features a total of 1,170 households with 12 buildings, ranging from 4 underground floors to a maximum of 20 above ground, with exclusive areas of 74 and 84 square meters. Only those without homes can apply, and strict conditions apply, including a 10-year re-application limit, a 3-year resale restriction, and a 3-year residence requirement. However, the maximum sale price for the exclusive area of 84 square meters, known as the 'standard size for ordinary citizens,' has been set at 547 million won, which is cheaper than the market price of nearby complexes, indicating concentrated interest from actual buyers.
