This January’s aggregate casino sales were nearly KRW18.19 billion (US$15.2 million), versus nearly KRW29.80 billion in December, and compared to KRW27.36 billion in January 2021. That is according to a Monday filing to the Korea Exchange.
Table-game sales for the first month this year were down 41.8 sequentially from December, and 36.5 percent year-on-year, at KRW16.22 billion.
Machine-game sales were up 2.1 percent month-on-month, and rose 9.3 percent judged year-on-year, at nearly KRW1.97 billion.
