In Hannam-dong, Yongsan-gu, long regarded as a traditional affluent neighborhood in Seoul, a high-end senior residence combining hotel-style services, professional healthcare, and housing, "Soyohanam by Parnas," is scheduled to be offered in the first half of this year.

According to the real estate industry on the 4th, ahead of the opening of the Soyohanam by Parnas promotion center, a PRIVATE LOUNGE will open starting on the 5th.

Soyohanam by Parnas will be built at 730 Hannam-daero in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, with 5 basement levels and 7 above-ground floors, a total floor area of about 16,000㎡, and 111 units in total. POSCO E&C is in charge of construction.

The PRIVATE LOUNGE will operate from the 5th to May 2 in a suite at the Grand Intercontinental Seoul Parnas. A private tour program will be offered to reservation customers, who can also experience "Metropolitan Fitness," regarded as one of the country's top hotel fitness clubs, and the suite. Tour applications can be submitted via the main website and main phone number.

Masters in each field participated in the landscaping and interior design of Soyohanam by Parnas. For landscaping, Jeong Young-seon, CEO of Seoahn and a leading figure in Korea's landscape architecture scene, designed a courtyard that blends natural light and water features, along with an approximately 150-meter exclusive walking trail within the complex. This allows residents to enjoy a restful space that captures the changing seasons even in the city center.

The interior design is handled by the studio "Jongkim Design Studio." With a ceiling height of 2.7 meters and a living room width designed at about 5.5 meters, the space feels expansive. The kitchen features global premium brands for both aesthetics and functionality, including the Italian high-end furniture brand Molteni&C, Germany's BORA under-cabinet filter hood, and GESSI faucets.

Specialized designs reflecting the lifestyle patterns of the senior generation have also been applied. Two private elevators per unit reduce waiting times and enhance privacy. A 2-meter-deep open balcony with faucet connections allows for individual gardening, and sensor step lights assist safe nighttime walking, presenting finely detailed spaces and features for residents.

Soyohanam by Parnas also provides auxiliary facilities amounting to about 50㎡ per unit. In addition to a swimming pool, sauna, fitness center, and golf practice range, a clinic will operate within the complex to meet residents' health and leisure needs at the same time.

On the first floor, resident-tailored community facilities will include a hotel-level lounge welcome zone and concierge, a book lounge, a tea house with views of the courtyard gardening, and dining areas composed of open seating and private dining rooms. A multiuse space supporting residents' socializing and business activities—such as a guest house, party room, AV room, meeting room, hobby room, and seminar room—will also be provided so that residents can enjoy a private community life within the complex.

In addition, Parnas Hotel, which has the know-how of operating five-star hotels, and Chaum·Cha Healthcare, which provides anti-aging and integrated healthcare systems, will collaborate to deliver lifecare services.

Healthcare consultants will analyze residents' health status based on data such as blood pressure and blood sugar and provide customized dietary guidance that can be practiced daily. In particular, at the exclusive restaurant, residents can choose and enjoy menus aligned with personal health goals—such as low-sodium, low-sugar, and high-protein—among the balanced offerings prepared by Parnas Hotel chefs. In-room dining will also be available 365 days a year, allowing residents to comfortably enjoy the same quality meals within the complex.

Meticulous healthcare services will also be provided. Within the complex, a nurse-turned healthcare consultant will be stationed 24 hours a day to respond immediately to emergencies. A dedicated healthcare consultant will offer one-stop care, from making hospital appointments on behalf of residents to integrated management of test results.

In particular, through MOUs with leading domestic hospitals, including Soonchunhyang University Seoul Hospital, a top-tier medical network will be established. A dedicated app will allow residents to manage real-time health monitoring systems and hospital records on a single platform and view all health information at a glance.

In terms of location, the complex allows travel in about 10 minutes in both directions to Gangnam (GBD) and the central business district (CBD) via Hannam Bridge and the Namsan Tunnel. Residents can walk to Hangangjin Station on Subway Line 6 and Hannam Station on the Gyeongui-Jungang Line. Nearby, Namsan and Maebongsan walking trails and the Hangang Park provide green and waterfront spaces within daily reach.
