This study proposes &ldquo:Prosuming-Parks,&rdquo: spatial models that integrate industrial activities with green infrastructure to revitalize South Korea&rsquo:s border regions. A dataset of 2126 brownfields&mdash:including aging industrial sites, military facilities, water infrastructure, public buildings, schools, and railways&mdash:was compiled and evaluated through a Prosuming-Park Typology Index linking brownfield types with eight industrial sectors. Six models are derived and applied to fifteen municipalities, suggesting tailored strategies for industrial restructuring and ecological restoration. The framework demonstrates how brownfields can seed scalable green networks and, with future inter-Korean cooperation, evolve into transboundary ecological systems.
