10:10 am. The Shinsegae department store in Busan is billed as the world's largest department store. It does not open until 10:30 am, though, so we wander around doing nothing for a while. Finding the street entrance, we wait until the doors open.
10:30 am. Doors open, every salesman and worker is at their station, cherrfully greeting the customers. Inside the escalator carries us up 9 floors, past all types of stores & departments, such as Tiffany's, Loius Vitton as well as local brands. The 9th floor had a performance hall, about a dozen restaurants (3 japanese, several korean, italian, chinese, etc.), a bank, and a rooftop park. Jesse really liked the bathrooms: "Probably the best bathrooms you will ever see", he says. There was also an ice-skating rink, a preschool, and a huge spa inside the store.
They didn't have everything--the bookstore was missing an english-japanese phrasebook.
