Lotte Mart said it will hold its June "Tongkeun Day" for five days from the 3rd to the 7th.

Tongkeun Day is a large-scale discount event that Lotte Mart and Lotte Super have operated monthly since this year, focusing on food and daily necessities with high customer impact. Rather than simply discounting a few items, it is structured to reintroduce products with high seasonal demand and items that saw strong responses in the previous event.
