Gongzi Jeju, the newest foreigners-only casino on South Korea’s Jeju island, held its official grand opening on Sunday.
The Gongzi Jeju Casino, which is based within the Ramada Plaza Jeju Hotel complex, held a “pre-launch gala ceremony” in April following the completion of a lengthy renovation and rebranding from its previous identity as the Ramada Plaza Jeju Casino.
The new property boasts a 40k-square-foot gaming floor featuring 45 gaming tables and 24 electronic gambling machines. The official launch party (see video at bottom of page), which was bumped from its original June 26 date, saw invited guests treated to a lion dance, laser show, K-pop singers and a gala dinner.
Gongzi Jeju chief operating officer Lysa Evans said the property owner’s vision was “to create a gaming experience in a location that was accessible, with fantastic natural scenery and relaxing entertainment.”
