Seoul luxury hotels have raised prices for seasonal strawberry dessert buffets, with many adult tickets now in the 100,000–150,000 won range (about $75–$110). Hotels cite a premium “small luxury” strategy and social media-driven demand for photogenic displays, even though wholesale strawberry prices fell this year due to higher supply. Popular buffet dates run from December through March, and weekend seats are often sold out; consumers report booking alerts and fierce reservation competition.
