The Chanel duplex boutique is located near Gate 252 on the east side of Terminal 2 at Incheon International Airport.

The Shilla Duty Free has opened a Chanel duplex boutique at Incheon International Airport’s (ICN’s) Terminal 2, marking Shilla’s first duplex store with the luxury fashion brand at an airport in Korea.

Launched on 22 July, it is also the only Chanel store in ICN’s Terminal 2.

“We expect this Chanel duplex boutique to be a landmark at Incheon International Airport, in terms of size, interior design, the range of products it offers, and its differentiated customer service,” said a Shilla Duty Free representative.

To celebration the opening, The Shilla Duty Free and Chanel hosted a ribbon-cutting ceremony and store tour for select guests.

Among those in attendance were: Han In-gyu, General Manager of Hotel Shilla; Claus Oldager, CEO of Chanel Korea; and Kim Chang-kyu, Head of Operations at Incheon International Airport Corporation.
