Sejong National Smart City White Paper

As for the Sejong National Pilot Smart City, a smart city can be defined as follows:
‘A future city as a platform that provides personalized forecasting services that elevate the quality of life and happiness of city dwellers and the city’s sustainability by converting all phenomena and movements taking place inside the city and residents’ behaviors and analyzing them with artificial intelligence.’

Previous cities including the U-City have used smart technologies to decrease costs and increase efficiency, mainly by suppliers and administrators. Unlike them, a smart city is a ‘futuristic city’ that uses fourth industrial revolution technology to design, operate, and manage the city for the happiness of its users, the residents.

A variety of urban issues caused by urbanization worldwide, such as resource depletion, environmental contamination, traffic congestion, energy shortages, increasing crime rates, and disaster, are increasingly serious. A smart city introduces the smart technologies of the fourth industrial revolution to preemptively respond to various urban issues.
