Banyan Tree Haeundae Busan Resort, located in the Osiria Tourist Complex in Gijang-gun, Busan, is currently delayed in its opening due to a fire incident and the construction company's application for corporate rehabilitation.

The developer Rupentis is in the process of terminating their contract with the construction company Samjeong Enterprise and selecting a new construction firm.

However, amidst this confusion, the developer is requesting members to complete the payment and registration, leading to controversy. It remains to be seen how this situation will unfold.

On February 14, a tragic fire incident at the Busan Banyan Tree Resort resulted in 6 fatalities and 1 injury. Following this incident, the construction company Samjeong Enterprise and Samjeong E&C applied for corporate rehabilitation due to financial difficulties.

Additionally, developer Rupentis has announced the termination of their contract based on this situation. Various repercussions are anticipated as a result.

Rupentis recently informed members that "the construction contract has become difficult to fulfill due to the construction company's corporate rehabilitation and the application of the Serious Accident Punishment Act." They added, "We will do our best to select a new construction company and normalize the project."

However, there has been no specific mention of when a new construction company will be selected or when construction will resume. Members seem to require a clear timeline regarding this matter.

Banyan Tree Resort located in Haeundae, Busan was originally scheduled to open in February, but the opening has been indefinitely postponed due to the fire incident and the application for corporate rehabilitation. The developer has stated that they are aiming for a May opening, but currently, there is uncertainty regarding whether the opening can actually take place.

The Osiria Tourist Complex, where the resort is located, is a major tourist project that Busan City is developing with a large budget, aiming to become a year-round marine leisure center combining accommodation, leisure, and shopping. However, the delay in the opening of Banyan Tree Resort is expected to hinder the development of the tourist complex. This situation could negatively impact the local economy and tourism industry.

The geological limitations of the Osiria Tourist Complex have been pointed out as an issue. Concerns exist that the distance from the tourist hotspots of Haeundae and Gwanganli may hinder the influx of tourists.

Currently, Haeundae is home to many 5-star hotels such as Signiel, Westin Chosun, Grand Chosun, and Paradise, raising questions about whether Banyan Tree Resort can actually be competitive. These factors could become obstacles to the development of the Osiria Tourist Complex.


Developer's Request for Remaining Payment and Registration Faces Backlash from Members

In the current unclear situation regarding the opening due to the fire incident and the construction company's application for corporate rehabilitation, the developer Rupentis's request for members to complete the remaining payment and registration has caused an expansion of controversy.

Unlike typical resort memberships, the Banyan Tree Resort's membership is operated on a shared ownership system where members own a certain share. The price ranges from 300 million to 900 million won, and once members pay the full price, they are guaranteed permanent ownership. However, members are expressing strong opposition to the developer's move to force registration while the resort's construction is not yet completed.

This situation is further increasing members' anxiety, and concerns regarding the future operation of the resort and the value of memberships are growing. Members are urging the developer to reconsider their decision.

Members are voicing their dissatisfaction with the developer's demands. Many express that "it is incomprehensible to request payment and registration for an unfinished resort." One member said, "It's like asking for the final payment and registration for an apartment where the wallpaper hasn't even been applied," expressing disbelief.

In response, the developer claims, "It is necessary to complete the payment and registration to protect property rights." The developer urges members that "once registration is completed, property rights can be protected even if various variables arise thereafter," but members' anxieties remain unresolved.

Ultimately, members question the legitimacy of the developer's demands and cannot hide their concerns about future situations. Issues related to the resort are imposing a significant psychological burden on the members.

Will Banyan Tree Resort Normalize?

The developer Rupentis is currently looking for a new construction company and readjusting the opening schedule. However, due to the aftermath of the fire incident, changes in the construction company, and issues with remaining payment and registration, significant time will likely be required for the normalization of business operations.

Banyan Tree Resort is a globally renowned luxury resort brand, originally planned to include high-end facilities such as the Thai restaurant 'Saffron' and the world's top 10 rooftop bar 'Vertigo'. However, questions are increasing regarding whether these plans can be properly executed.

In the future, concerns regarding the opening schedule of Banyan Tree Haeundae Busan Resort and issues regarding membership ownership may develop into legal disputes between the developer and the members. Therefore, whether the developer can quickly select a new construction company and resume construction is expected to be a key factor in the business's future normalization.
