Yangyang County announces planned airport tourism MOU with Kangwon Land

A community group representing four areas in Gangwon Province has urged South Korea’s government to remove or raise Kangwon Land’s revenue cap and ease visitation restrictions. The group argued that the limits weaken the casino’s ability to compete ahead of MGM Osaka’s scheduled 2030 opening; South Korean residents may visit Kangwon Land 15 times a month, and those exceeding 60 days a year must complete responsible-gambling education.
