The apartment is touted for its "convenience in living," considering it is surrounded by two major projects in Cheongna International City ― Hana Financial Town and a medical complex.

Carried out by a consortium led by Asan Medical Center, the construction of the medical complex is scheduled to be complete in September 2023.
Starfield shopping mall and Costco retail discount store are set to open the vicinity of the apartment in the coming years.
Regarding access to transportation, the apartment is walking distance from Cheongna International City Station on the Airport Railroad Express (AREX).
An extension planned for Seoul Metro Line 7 is set to begin construction this year, which will save commuters 20 to 30 minutes on the trip to Express Bus Terminal in southern Seoul.
Additionally, the apartment will be located closed to a new Line 9 station, which also will be a transit point for AREX.
The studio apartments target newlywed couples and families with two to three children.
Some units will be equipped a terrace of "considerable size," that can be used for gardening, exercise and other outdoor activities.
