Paju Premium Outlets has launched an international delivery service to attract foreign tourists.
The shopping mall, operated by Shinsegae Simon, recently signed an agreement with DHL Express Korea, under which products sold at the mall are delivered to 220 countries, including the United States, China, Vietnam and Russia.
"Paju is emerging as a new travel destination because it has the filming sites of several hit Korean dramas such as ‘The Descendants of the Sun' and ‘My Love from the Star,'" a Shinsegae Simon official said. "The delivery service will make it possible for foreigners to enjoy shopping without the worry of how to take the purchased products home."
The mall, in Gyeonggi Province, sells nearly 220 domestic and foreign brands such as Armani, Coach, DKNY, Hugo Boss, MCM, Kuho, Polo Ralph Lauren and Tory Burch.
