This study aimed at proposing policy improving directions of the rural empty homes grant scheme in Korea. The implementation procedures and results of the relevant schemes/projects on optimum use of rural empty homes at home and abroad were reviewed by literature and internet searches. From the reviewing results, a tentative set of policy directions for project improvement were proposed: extention of project scope to all the redundant resources, dual focussing of project objectives on housing innovation and economic regeneration of communities, and systematization of project plan and implementation especially in the statutory aspects.
