Blue House said that after the retirement of President Moon Jae-in, he bought land around Pyeongsan Village in Hebuk-myeon, Yangsan, Gyeongsangnam-do to build a sisterhood.

In and out of President Moon, five of Jisan-ri's 2,630.5㎡ were bought at a cost of more than 1.60 billion won.

The site of the escort facility to be joined together was secured by the Blue House Security Agency on a separate budget in accordance with the Act on the Pre-Presidential Courtesy Act.

The Blue House explained that President Moon tried to continue to use his home in Maegok-dong, Yangsan, but was forced to move due to security issues.

[Kang Min-suk/Spokesman of the Blue House: (Mr. Moon) internally expressed his intention to return to his home in Maegok-dong, Yangsan. The Ministry of Security and Public Administration decided that it was impossible for a security facility to enter.]

Accordingly, at the end of last year, the procurement of a new sister property was promoted. In the process, President Moon ordered that the new site not be larger than the size of Maegok-dong's home. .

However, as President Moon has said,'I want to be forgotten after resignation', it seems unlikely that President Moon's sisters will operate as so-called open sisters.

President Moon plans to dispose of the current Magok-dong residence to raise the cost of purchasing the site.
