      Economy


      Dong District (Dong-gu) is often regarded as the most underdeveloped area in Daejeon. However, it wasn’t always this way—Dong-gu once served as the central hub of the city. Its decline began in the 1990s, when the western areas of Daejeon, such as Seo-gu and Yuseong-gu, underwent significant development. The construction of the Dunsan New Town, along with the relocation of the Daejeon Government Complex and other key government offices, public institutions, businesses, and shops to this area, led to the gradual decline of Dong-gu, which had previously been the city’s original downtown.
