The building's land is 143.84 pyong (~ 5,000 sq. ft.) wide with a total ground area of 534.42 pyong (~ 19,000 sq. ft.), one underground garage level, and seven aboveground floors, including 1-2 floors for eating and 3-6 floors of offices.

An expert in corporate buildings Kim Yoon Soo stated, "The building Jaejoong purchased beats the buildings in Gangnam with a rental income ratio that is 5% higher than the average, so I think he bought this for the lease revenue." He said that third class general residential areas had to have a 250% floor area ratio, but the building had an even higher one of 300%; additionally, there was a lot of parking spaces, so parts of the building could be used as office space, adding to the practicality of the building.
