Kangwon Land outlines K-HIT resort plan amid competition from Japan
Kangwon Land has announced the K-HIT Project, a multi-phase plan to develop High1 Resort by 2032, as South Korean casino stakeholders discuss competition from Japan’s planned Osaka integrated resort. Acting chief executive Choi Cheol-gyu described the project as part of efforts to strengthen Korea’s position, while forum participants called for changes to casino regulation.
The proposed resort development and calls for regulatory reform could shape South Korea’s casino and tourism strategy.
