It is a newly opened shopping mall in Suwon, Gyeonggi Province, at the end of last month, and mainly features famous select shops and restaurants targeting the MZ generation.

It moved away from being a family-oriented store and focused on an experiential space for the MZ generation, and 330,000 people flocked to it in the three days since opening.
