Recently, the 'good landlord movement', which voluntarily cuts rent to small and small businesses suffering from corona19, is also being heard in some areas.

Tenants who do not receive the rent cut benefit complain of a relative sense of deprivation, while those who cannot afford it are struggling with tenants who demand cuts.

According to related ministries, such as the Ministry of Small and Medium Business and Venture Business, until yesterday (17th), 2,298 landlords nationwide participated in the good landlord movement.

Based on the store, 2,4,921 locations are receiving benefits.

There are also 375 traditional markets and shopping malls that have rented.

However, it is also true that for some lessees who did not receive the benefit of rent reduction, the good landlord movement itself was bitter.

Mr. A (47, female), who runs a skin care room in a 3-story building in Guro-gu, Seoul, declined to 70% of sales after the Corona 19 incident, but asked B, the landlord, to lower his rent earlier this month.

Mr. B said, "Isn't it a business that can't be done all year round? It's all a difficult time."

Mr. A said, "I have never lost my rent, and I managed to keep the mall clean, so I had a good relationship with the landlord."

He also confessed, "I sometimes feel bitter when I hear about how much the surrounding shopping malls lower my rent."

On the other hand, there are some landlords who are uneasy about tenants who take their rent for granted.

In Korea, there are many cases of buying a building or a shopping mall with a loan, and some landlords are burdened with paying the loan principal, interest, tax, and utility bills.

That's why real estate industry officials say that there are quite a few people who can't participate even if they want to join the good landlord movement.

C (68), who is renting a second-floor shopping mall in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, said, "There was a small building that was bought for loan for old age." I asked for a percent cut. "

He continued, "One of them was a person who didn't pay the rent on time even if the business was good."

On the 13th of this month, on the bulletin board of the National Petition for Cheong Wa Dae, banks posted a petition saying, "Please respond with a good bank in a good landlord's movement," which asked the banks to lower the interest on lenders.

The real estate industry gathered that the government needed to spread the movement as an incentive, considering both the good purpose of the good landlord movement and the burden of the landlord.

Real estate expert Jun-Seok Ko, an adjunct professor at Dongguk University, said, "It is good to do this, and in this crisis, we must spread the movement because we have to coexist." This appears, and the building price goes down further. "

He suggested, "Rather than forcing, the government should give incentives to lower rental income taxes and corporate taxes to spread this movement."
