Shinsegae Department Store has launched its Chuseok gift sale across nationwide branches (main sales period Sept 7–23, some stores earlier), broadening offerings beyond premium foods to include traditional crafts, cultural items and curated travel experiences. Food highlights remain premium brands like 5-STAR, Shinsegae Cow Beef (female-cattle hanwoo), and Select Farm produce, featuring top-grade hanwoo sets (e.g., The Signature 3.2 million KRW) and specialty fruits and seafood from regional producers. Newer categories emphasize Korean cultural heritage: House of Shinsegae presents modern reinterpretations of traditional desserts and sweets, and Local is Shinsegae offers artisan works such as white porcelain moon jars (dalhangari) and mother-of-pearl (najeon) crafts. For experience gifts, the Via Shinsegae travel platform lists luxury trips like European New Year concerts, gourmet Hong Kong tours, Egyptian history trips and Serengeti safaris.
