Earlier this week, Apple announced the opening of a brand-new Apple Store in Gangnam, Seoul, South Korea – not too far away from ‘Samsung Town’.
Deirdre O’Brien, Apple’s Senior VP of Retail and People, made the announcement of the new store in a short Instagram reel. The video shows a gorgeous animation, and the opening date of 31 March 2023. Apple Gangnam is set to be the fifth Apple Store in South Korea since Apple started opening South Korean stores in 2018, also in Seoul.
The store is opening near the Shinnonhyeon Station in the south of Seoul, which is very close to Samsung Group offices. The Gangnam store will join over 500 other Apple Stores around the world, with over 270 of them being in the US, giving another destination for customers for help with their Apple products, support and Today at Apple sessions.
