The industry used to generate an equal amount of revenue from domestic and foreign shoppers, but that changed in 2012 when a large number of Chinese group tourists started flowing into Korea. The share of foreign shoppers in the country’s duty-free sales surged to 74% in 2017 as Chinese middlemen so-called daigou started to snap up Korea’s duty-free goods for resale in their home country a couple of years ago. Thanks to daigou, Korea’s downtown duty-free business is also thriving. Last year, the downtown operation constituted 78% of total domestic duty-free sales, up from 50% in 2012. Foreign travelers shell Amid diplomatic friction between Seoul and Beijing last year, the number of foreign out more on duty-free arrivals to Korea shrank (down 23% yoy), which led to a decline in traffic to duty-free goods than local customers stores (down 27% yoy for foreign customers). Yet, foreign tourists’ spending on duty- free goods increased thanks to free-spending daigou. On a per-customer basis, foreign travelers spent six times more on duty-free goods than local customers in 1H18. Fig 1. Korea’s duty-free industry: Global market Fig 2.

In July this year, the company launched another duty-free outlet in Gangnam, the southern part of Seoul.

Myoungjoo Kim [email protected] Minjeong Kyeong [email protected] 2Q20 review Larger-than-expected operating loss For 2Q20, Hotel Shilla reported consolidated revenue of W523bn (-61.4% YoY) and an operating loss of W63.4bn (turn to loss YoY). The operating loss was larger than the market expectation. The weak results were attributable to: 1) disappointing sales of unsold duty-free inventory to third parties overseas; and 2) increased commission fees following a recovery in small daigou. A QoQ rise in the discount rate given to large-scale daigou also contributed to the weak results. Additional negatives to be Despite lingering uncertainties, additional negatives to be limited limited Hotel Shilla suffered a significant operating loss for the second straight quarter despite sharp rent cuts (W56bn; about four months’ worth) at Incheon International Airport (IIA). Store traffic failed to recover amid the lingering impact of COVID-19. Due to the prolonged effects of the pandemic, uncertainty still surrounds the recovery outlook. That said, we believe additional negatives beyond COVID-19 are limited. Despite the pandemic, sales to daigou are proving resilient, showing that demand for Korean cosmetics and duty-free channels remains solid. Accumulate on weakness Maintain Buy and TP of W100,000 We see no additional negatives aside from COVID-19. Hotel Shilla’s stock is trading at a 2021F P/E of 16.0x. Valuation does not look demanding, assuming a normalization in business conditions in 2021.

    EFFECTS OF SOUTH KOREAN MARKET LIBERALIZATION ON THE SOUTH KOREAN RETAIL MARKET Eun Jin Hwang Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Clothing and Textiles Marjorie J.

During 1997, South Korea began to experience a serious financial crisis, including bankruptcies of many of its conglomerates, a drastic depreciation in the international exchange rate of the South Korean currency, and an increasing foreign debt. Currently South Korea is struggling to compete with products from both industrialized nations and newly industrializing nations. The current crisis has occurred as South Korea has been engaged in extensive market-opening. Knowledge is lacking about South Korea's intricate and rapidly changing political and economic climate. The purpose of this research was to explore and clarify the interrelated factors that have contributed to South Korea’s present economic problems, especially those facing South Korea’s retailing industry.
