Shilla Duty Free announced on the 26th that it has attracted large cruise group tourists in line with the temporary visa-free entry for Chinese group tourists, which will be implemented starting on the 29th.

Passengers aboard the 77,000-ton Dream, operated by Tianjin Dongfang International Cruise, a Chinese cruise line making its first call at Incheon Port, are scheduled to visit the Shilla Duty Free Seoul branch.

Shilla Duty Free plans to hold a welcoming event for the Dream’s group tourists visiting the Seoul branch by presenting them with bouquets.
