Victoria T-Rex Exhibition at Lotte Department Store.

[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jinyoung] Lotte Department Store is presenting an experiential edutainment exhibition that the whole family can enjoy together in celebration of the reopening and Family Month.

According to Lotte Department Store on the 21st, starting from the 22nd, the Gimpo Airport branch will host the experiential edutainment exhibition "Victoria T-Rex" for the first time in Asia.

First, the exhibition features content that allows visitors to experience the life of dinosaurs alongside the fossil of a gigantic Tyrannosaurus rex that existed 66 million years ago. Composed of six sections, this exhibition showcases the Asia's largest "Victoria T-Rex" fossil, measuring 12 meters in length and 3.5 meters in height, made from over 200 fossils. Unlike previous dinosaur exhibitions, it boasts perfectly preserved real fossils rather than models, and the exhibition hall is decorated to resemble the jungle where the "Victoria T-Rex" once lived, adding vividness.

Additionally, by combining 3D graphics and interactive elements, visitors can enjoy media videos that make it feel as if they are observing dinosaurs right in front of their eyes. In particular, an experience zone is implemented where visitors can directly touch dinosaur skin and smell the jungle environment where dinosaurs lived, offering customers a more special experience.

Various educational events that the whole family can enjoy and learn from together have also been prepared. The "Fossil Excavation" experience, where children become archaeologists and search for dinosaur bones in a sandpit, is expected to be very popular by stimulating children's historical and scientific interests.

Until the 31st of next month, an event will be held where visitors who find the hidden "dinosaur eggs" throughout the exhibition hall will receive gifts. In addition, experiential learning activities such as paper folding and drawing, where children can express their imagined dinosaurs, will be conducted regularly.

Jo Seokmin, manager of Lotte Department Store Gimpo Airport branch, said, "We have prepared with great care for a long time to attract content that the whole family can enjoy together in celebration of Family Month," and added, "We will continue to strive to provide customers with new experiences and enjoyment through various content."
