[Asia Economy Reporter Jeon Jinyoung] Times Square's newly created family-oriented shopping platform, 'Time Terrace,' will have its grand opening in Dongtan on the 1st of next month.
According to Times Square on the 31st, 'Time Terrace' is a name combining Times Square's 'Time' and the trend of rest and healing, 'Terrace.' It is a newly launched family-centered complex shopping mall reflecting urban lifestyle trends by Times Square.
Time Terrace is located within the Metapolis complex, a landmark high-rise residential-commercial building in the new city of Dongtan, Hwaseong, covering a total floor area of approximately 142,000 m². Not only is it situated in the heart of Dongtan, but it is also directly connected by a walkable street to Central Park, offering excellent accessibility.
In particular, it is located at a transportation hub where bus routes directly connecting to Seoul's Gangnam area converge, making the competition in the commercial district expected to intensify.
To celebrate the grand opening of 'Time Terrace,' a prize promotion will be held for visitors for one month. From the 1st of next month until May 1st, a 'Time Terrace Opening Commemorative Prize Event' will be held for visitors, offering prizes such as Samsung AirDresser, LG StanbyMe, LG air purifiers, Dyson vacuum cleaners, Nintendo, and Samsung Bespoke Cookers through a lottery.
Additionally, during the event period, a Blooming Garden decorated as a garden of flowers and spring will be set up in the Time Terrace Atrium. Customers who upload photos taken at the Blooming Garden on Instagram with hashtags will be eligible for a 'Blooming Garden Photo Printing Service' available daily from 12 PM to 8 PM. Also, on weekends, a 'Blooming Garden Roulette Prize Event' will be held, giving various prizes to the first 200 customers each day who present a receipt of purchase over 10,000 KRW.
An 'Instagram Photo Event' will also be held. Until May 1st, customers who upload photos taken at Time Terrace on Instagram with hashtags will be entered into a draw to win Starbucks Americano gifticons and other prizes.
There are also abundant brand-specific events. CGV offers a 50% discount on large-sized popcorn single purchases and a 20% discount on popcorn bags throughout April.
