The road name address implemented in 2014 is called a new address or new address, and the new address is applied only to buildings other than land. In other words, land is used only at the old address (lot address), and for buildings, the old address and new address (road name address) are used.
The new address (street name address) is the same as the old address in the city and county districts, but it is different from the old address in that the street name and building number are used instead of the dong-ri and lot numbers.
For reference, the lot number address is a method of determining the address by designating the land number when dividing the land.
