## Featured rationale

New supply may unlock previously constrained corporate relocations and transactions, although simultaneous tenant departures could raise near-term CBD vacancy while other districts remain stable or improve.

Seoul prime office leasing is expected to accelerate in H2 2026 as G1 Seoul, Rene Square and Eul Tower expand available high-quality space.

Office relocations are expected to increase as new towers open.

Seoul's prime office market is expected to enter a more active leasing phase during the second half of 2026 as new office supply comes online, although vacancy in the CBD is likely to increase in the near term, according to Savills.

Savills said the completion of G1 Seoul and Rene Square, together with Eul Tower later this year, will significantly expand the amount of leasable prime office space available and encourage corporate relocations that have been constrained by limited options.

The consultancy expects vacancy in the CBD to come under pressure as new supply coincides with several major tenant departures from buildings including Twin Tree Tower, Greits Sungnye, Pacific Tower and KDB Life Tower. However, some of the vacant space is expected to be backfilled by incoming occupiers including Encar.com, Hanwha Life Lab and CJ Olive Young, while Rene Square will be anchored by the Serious Crimes Investigation Agency from October.

In the GBD, Savills expects vacancy to remain broadly stable as expansion by existing occupiers offsets planned departures. Bithumb and Samsung Securities are expected to lease an additional 8,900 square metres, while Anthropic and Sanofi are each expected to take around 3,800 square metres at Centerfield.

The outlook for the YBD remains positive, according to Savills, with vacancy forecast to continue declining as major occupiers absorb available space. NH NongHyup Capital is expected to occupy seven floors at One Centinel, while Shinemage Global, Life AMC and Prada are set to take a combined 9,200 square metres at Parc.1 Tower 1. JustCo Korea is also planning a new location at Parc.1 Tower 2.

Despite recording negative net absorption for a second consecutive quarter, Savills said tenant demand remains intact and expects leasing activity to accelerate as more high-quality office space becomes available across Seoul.

### 首尔核心写字楼租赁下半年料将加速

随着新写字楼供应入市，首尔核心写字楼市场预计将在2026年下半年进入更活跃的租赁阶段，不过空置率

随着新塔楼开业，写字楼搬迁预计将增加。

据第一太平戴维斯称，随着新写字楼供应入市，首尔核心写字楼市场预计将在2026年下半年进入更活跃的租赁阶段，不过中央商务区空置率短期内可能上升。

第一太平戴维斯表示，G1 Seoul和Rene Square竣工，再加上今年晚些时候的Eul Tower，将显著扩大可租赁核心写字楼空间规模，并推动此前因选择有限而受限的企业搬迁。

该顾问机构预计，随着新供应与多家主要租户从Twin Tree Tower、Greits Sungnye、Pacific Tower和KDB Life Tower等大楼撤离重叠，中央商务区空置率将承压。不过，部分空置空间预计将被Encar.com、韩华生命实验室和CJ Olive Young等新进租户回填，而Rene Square将自10月起由重案调查机构作为主力租户入驻。

在江南商务区，第一太平戴维斯预计空置率将大体保持稳定，因现有租户扩张将抵消计划中的撤离。Bithumb和三星证券预计将再租8900平方米，而Anthropic和赛诺菲预计将分别在Centerfield各承租约3800平方米。

据第一太平戴维斯称，汝矣岛商务区前景仍正面，预计空置率将随主要租户吸纳可用空间而继续下降。NH农协资本预计将入驻One Centinel七个楼层，而Shinemage Global、Life AMC和Prada将合计承租Parc.1 Tower 1约9200平方米。JustCo Korea也计划在Parc.1 Tower 2开设新地点。

尽管连续第二个季度录得负净吸纳，第一太平戴维斯表示租户需求仍然完好，并预计随着首尔更多优质写字楼空间可供使用，租赁活动将加速。
