Near the heart of South Korean capital Seoul, is Seongmisan Maeul - a community network in the national spotlight. Made up of 6,000 families, the community is notable for a range of restaurants, stores and other businesses co-funded by residents. Members of the network discuss their community's day-to-day needs, and work together to realize the ideas and proposals they come up with. This scheme began in 1994 when 25 dual-income couples decided to co-fund a childcare center to give their kids the best start in life. Now, some 22 years later, there are over 70 resident-led businesses and groups, and even a school that formulates its own curriculum.
