Since 2022, we have been opening POP UP stores in various locations in response to the needs of customers who want to shop at a physical store while actually touching the products. As our customer base progressed, we received comments such as ``I'm glad we have a store and would definitely like to open a permanent store,'' so we decided to open a permanent store in order to meet customer requests and deliver products with the best service. Currently, we have two stores: the flagship store, The Plaza Hotel store, and the reopened Tangram store.
