Lotte Mart Yeongjongdo

Lotte Mart at Seoul Station is crowded and overwhelming, but the one in Unseo isn't as busy, so you can take your time browsing. The checkout lines aren't long either. There are plenty of samples and a wide variety of products, which is great!

There were so many products and it was very easy to browse, which was great!!! I was able to buy lots of souvenirs and was very satisfied!!!!

When I stay in Myeong-dong, I usually go to the Lotte Mart at Seoul Station, but since I was staying at the Paradise City Hotel in Incheon this time, I bought souvenirs at a nearby Lotte Mart, just a 15-minute taxi ride away. Although it's not as large as the Seoul Station branch, it has plenty of snacks, ramen, and other items suitable for souvenirs. The fruit you can eat at the hotel is also very cheap, so I highly recommend it. I found a large bag of corn-flavored yakgwa, which I always buy, for the first time and got it as a souvenir to hand out. I also bought some seaweed that a staff member recommended, saying it was delicious with a good balance of salt and sesame oil. I was able to buy plenty of things at the Yeouido branch as well!

I stopped by to do some last-minute shopping near where I was staying the night before my flight home. It was less crowded than in downtown Seoul, had a great selection, and was easy to browse, so I could take my time looking around. I found everything I wanted and would definitely like to visit again on my next trip to Korea. The staff were all very kind as well.
