Paju has more than one outlet. In addition to Lotte, there's also a Shinsegae Outlet. The scale is huge and it's in the Western style. It's the best suburban shopping spot for Seoul locals.
Compared with the Lotte Outlet, the Shinsegae Premium Outlet is much more relaxed and almost resort-like. The facilities and restaurants found here are super nice as well.

It's either a subway ride on line 1 or a 25-minute drive from Seoul Station to Gasan Digital Media City Station. The Lotte Outlet is at exit 4.
Compared with the Paju Lotte Premium Outlet, the Gasan Lotte Outlet is much smaller. They still have everything that you'll need though.
There are only three floors. The discounts are marked very clearly on the floor guide.
This outlet feels more like a normal shopping mall. Unless there's a specific brand that's here, I recommend that you check out the other outlets on this list.

Mario Outlet may feel like a department store. It's giant, so you can even make this your all-in-one stop for shopping if you'd like.
