The Korean Government has provided public rental housing to stabilize civilian dwelling. However, unreliable management of public rental housing threatens the stability of residency. This study analyzes the default of public rental housing and the cause of default through a case study, which was intended for the residents in apartment complexes in danger of default. It also suggests countermeasures to cope with the problem of public rental housing. The results are listed as follows. First, rental housing apartments contribute a lot to the housing stability policy. On the other hand, the default of housing development, which is derived from the bankruptcy of housing management companies and the negligent control of government, brings about a serious problem for housing stability. Second, although the government has made a steady effort to solve this default problem, 9000 residents from 8 apartment complexes in Korea have experienced extreme unstable residency. Third, there are many causes for the default of public rental housing such as unqualified management companies and cursory monitoring by the government. The fundamental solution is to prevent public rental housing management companies from managing, or to build a new management system of public rental housing. To solve this problem, it's recommendable to delete the application term in the special law on the default of public rental housing so that it can be applied to all default apartments. If it is not possible to perform the policy for financial reasons, a new supply of civil housing provided by private companies needs to be re-examined completely or banned.
