[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] Lotte World Tower and Mall have prepared spaces and events for customers who safely endured the 'social distancing' period.

On the 8th, Lotte World Mall announced that it will newly open a sensory stimulation store on the 4th floor kids zone of the mall for children who may have felt confined at home. ‘Jjaegak Alligator,’ which provides childcare services, is Korea’s first offline store offering various experiences such as urban farmer classes, sensory classes, and drawing classes.

At the extreme indoor playground ‘Champion The Blackbelt,’ children aged 5-6 up to upper elementary school students can enjoy wild play using ropes and slides. On the B1 floor, the ‘Tamiya Plamodel Factory’ allows visitors not only to purchase plastic models and mini cars but also to enjoy racing directly. Although Lotte World Tower and Mall have shifted to everyday distancing, they conduct regular disinfection six times daily (four times during the day, twice at night), and individual stores also carry out separate disinfection continuously.

At the Lotte World Seoul Sky Pop Heroes Store, photo zones featuring Iron Man and Spider-Man have been installed, and various character figures, including limited edition figures available only at Seoul Sky, are on sale. Lotte World Aquarium has newly opened an animal hospital zone where children can experience the veterinarian profession by treating marine animals with the guidance of an instructor.

Events for newlyweds and families have also been prepared. The Signiel Seoul Hotel at Lotte World Tower has launched a ‘Romantic Getaway’ package where guests can enjoy their honeymoon while overlooking the Seoul cityscape from a super high floor. The package includes one night in a Signiel Premier City View room, KRW 500,000 worth of credits usable anywhere within Signiel Seoul, a cake and champagne to add sweetness to the honeymoon, and a late checkout benefit (6 PM).

Lotte Duty Free is holding a 40th-anniversary event called ‘Party Red in Spring,’ offering discounts of up to 80% on famous international fashion brands such as Ferragamo, Bally, and Balenciaga. The Jamsil branch’s AvenueL has launched the premium upcycle shoe brand ‘Forward’ pop-up store for the first time in Korea, offering eco-bags and gift certificate events. Lotte Hi-Mart is also running a ‘Golden Shopping Week’ until the 14th, offering discounted products suitable as gifts for children and parents for Family Month.

Various exhibitions and performances are also being presented. Lotte Museum will reopen the special Korean exhibition commemorating the 50th anniversary of the moon landing, ‘To the Moon with Snoopy,’ which was closed due to COVID-19, until June 21. To strictly adhere to everyday distancing, docent and group visits are not allowed for the time being, but private exhibition viewing programs can be reserved in advance through the website.

Lotte Concert Hall will welcome back the musician ‘Mellow Kitchen,’ who gained recognition through JTBC’s Super Band, with the ‘El ToYo Concert’ on Saturday the 16th at 11 AM, featuring jazz arrangements of classical masterpieces by Beethoven, Mozart, and other classical era masters. Visitors must undergo personal disinfection and complete a health questionnaire before entering the venue.

Meanwhile, Lotte World Tower will present a colorful gobos light show along with the Seoul Sky Observatory, selected as one of the Korea Tourism Organization’s ‘Top 100 Night Tourism Spots,’ and Seokchon Lake to promote nighttime tourism. The gobos light show, held daily from 7:30 PM to 10 PM throughout May on the AvenueL Bridge, depicts images of major events previously held at the tower with various colors and patterns.
