  "summary": "Prime Minister Han Seong-sook has pledged to personally ensure the success of the government's housing supply plan, vowing to \"stake her job\" on its completion. This commitment was made during a Cabinet meeting in response to President Lee Jae Myung's call to prioritize the housing plan as an economic stimulus. Han has been visiting construction sites weekly to monitor progress and recently announced plans to add over 230,000 homes in the Seoul metropolitan area through accelerated development on public land, easing greenbelt restrictions, and supporting private sector projects. The move comes after criticism that the government has been more focused on demand management rather than supply expansion.",
