We compared two pedestrian-only streets located on the central commercial area in Jinju. However, both of them have different characteristics such as enforcement procedures and surrounding environment. The results can be summarized as below. 1) After the authorizations of the pedestrian streets, both have shown the conversion of commercial use and the specialized phenomena which is differentiated the characteristics of streets from each other. 2) The activity pattern of pedestrians is shown to be influenced by the location such as variety spatial formations or surrounding environments. Especially the activity of the pedestrians seemed to be influenced by a large market located closely, so it has shown the street that has lost its attraction by pedestrians is easy to belong under the influences of surrounding facilities. Therefore various space maintaining plans for pedestrians need to be activated. 3) For enforcing the pedestrian streets, the merchant's participation, planning, and progressive improvement are shown to influence on maintenance of street environments a lot. This can be reconfirmed the fact that the usefulness of the community participation as the environment improvement methods is important.
