In accordance with the government’s policy to decentralise data centres, the Greater Seoul Area claimed a 77% share of Korea’s national data centre market in the 2H 2023 period, down from 85% recorded in our 1H update as the share of areas outside of Greater Seoul, such as Gangwon, Pohang and Sejong, has grown.
