In recent years, multicultural special zones have become a focal point for researchers both domestically and internationally due to their rich cultural diversity. However, the Daehwa-dong area of Wongok-dong in Ansan, Korea's first multicultural village special zone, has not achieved the desired development outcomes. This paper aims to provide design recommendations for Ansan's multicultural special zone by conducting a comparative analysis of design variables of multicultural commercial streets in different regions. This study employs SAS 9.4 statistical software to perform Pearson correlation analysis and path analysis on the Ansan Multicultural Special Zone, Seoul's Garibong Central Market, and Incheon Chinatown. By comparing different path variable models, the study reveals the critical roles of "symbolism" and "Trendiness" in enhancing the vitality of Ansan's multicultural special zone. The research results provide theoretical and practical guidance for the design of multicultural special zones. Exploring the construction of multicultural cities amidst globalization, immigration trends, and tourism booms. However, Ansan's Wongok-dong, as South Korea's first multicultural village special zone, has not achieved the anticipated developmental outcomes. This study employs quantitative methods to provide design recommendations for Ansan's multicultural special zone through comparative analyses of design variables across multicultural commercial streets in different regions. Using SAS 9.4 statistical software, Pearson correlation and path analyses were conducted on Ansan's multicultural special zone, Seoul's Daerim Central Market, and Incheon's Chinatown. Comparative analysis of different path variable models revealed direct and indirect impacts of Convenience (CO), Sociability (SO), Aesthetic (AE), Symbolism (SY), and Trendiness (TR) variables on multicultural areas. Specifically, the study highlighted: (1) in Ansan, Aesthetic, Convenience, and Trendiness significantly enhance Sociability, with Aesthetic playing a predominant role indirectly; (2) Seoul's market design effectiveness is directly influenced by Symbolism, underscoring its core role; and (3) in Incheon's Chinatown, Trendiness significantly impacts area vitality, closely correlated with Aesthetic, Convenience, and Sociability. The conclusion emphasizes the urgent need to enhance Aesthetic quality in Ansan and suggests gradual improvements through long-term planning. Seoul's market and Incheon's Chinatown demonstrate intricate interaction paths among the five design factors, with Symbolism (SY) and Trendiness (TR) playing crucial roles. This research offers both theoretical insights and practical guidance for the design of multicultural zones, with a focus on assisting urban planners and policymakers in revitalizing these areas. By promoting cultural integration and fostering economic development, the study aims to enhance the overall appeal and sustainability of multicultural special zones. Ultimately, it provides valuable insights into how strategic design elements can optimize these zones, offering significant implications for future urban development initiatives.
