Shinsegae to Open Korea Department Store

The new department store will be located in the envisioned Suseo Station Transit Center Complex in Kora.

The Suseo Station Transit Center Complex Development Project intends to develop a 115,927sq m site around the SRT Suseo Station in the Gangnam district of Seoul, into a complex of commerce and businesses.

This is the second time the department store company is participating in a project that involves a train transit complex. In 2016, the company opened a department store branch at Dongdaegu Complex Transfer Center at Dongdaegu Station in Daegu. The newly envisioned store in Suseo, will operate in an area of 83,000sq m and will become the second largest department store after its Gangnam branch.

Cha Jeong-ho, Shinsegae Department Store Chief Executive Officer, commented: “This project holds the great potential to develop the southeast area of Seoul and the surrounding metropolitan area as a regional hub. We will successfully launch a new landmark department store there with our knowhow in the retail industry and with our ‘innovative DNA.’
