The situation of those affected by abandoned housing projects has not been a primary concern, as issues like homeowners being unable to move into their properties or facing mortgage defaults have not been prioritized. The focus has largely remained on the developers’ financial stability — this is the current reality of the Chinese real estate market.
Facing this harsh reality, some owners of abandoned properties have chosen not to wait any longer. Unable to change the situation, they have decided to accept it as best they can. They made a decision that left those around them puzzled—they moved into the unfinished buildings, taking up residence in bare, incomplete units without water or electricity. This lifestyle is not merely a step back in time; it feels as though they have been transported thousands of years into the past overnight. From afar, the high-rises may still look like a symbol of a shining metropolis, but up close, they resemble a scene from a post-apocalyptic world. The scene is surreal, as if one has been transported into a bizarre and disorienting reality.
