Masked shoppers lined up in front of luxury stores.

[Han Sang-hyeon / Seoul Guro-gu: I've been feeling frustrated at home for a while because of corona, so I

[Lee Myung-hoon / Ilsan-dong, Gyeonggi-do: On the day of Children's Day, my grandmother told me to buy children's clothes. It's nice to eat rice together.]

Department stores in the city are also crowded with shoppers.

There are signposts that sell products at low prices all over the store, and they are on a special discount event aimed at the golden holiday.

The industry expects the so-called 'compensation and consumption' effect of pouring out long-suffering consumption at the same time as Corona 19.

[Lee Seul-bi / Gangdong-gu, Seoul: Since I'm still at home, I'm trying to buy something that I haven't bought so far to go shopping while I came out today.]

Indeed, department store sales increased by 8.8% from last year to 13.3% during the Golden Holiday, showing signs of a rebound.
