Dufry Thomas Julie Korea Shop in Busan

Busan is known for its renowned international film festival which is held each fall. But aside from this celebrated annual event, Busan’s beaches, hot springs and nature reserves are some of the standout assets of South Korea´s second largest city and largest seaport. This special connection with nature and the sea is brought into the store operated by Dufry and its South Korean partner, Thomas Julie Korea, which is situated in the Departures terminal at Gimhae International Airport in Busan.

When the customer enters this 687m² shop, all eyes are drawn to the ceiling, with its artwork inspired by the beautiful light of the ocean, its marine life and its ships. The Dufry Thomas Julie shop in Busan includes a special focus on an attractive mix of Korean products, showcasing the best of Korea’s heritage and culture to all departing passengers – such as the world-famous Korean Ginseng. The offer also includes top Korean and international brands from the alcohol, food, fashion, sunglasses and tobacco categories, including the top local cigarette brand Esse.

The Gimhae store underwent an extensive refurbishment which was completed in early 2020, following the five-year contract extension granted in 2018 and now offers a WorldClass shopping experience to all passengers visiting the airport.
