This hot topic is about a "half-price sale."
Reports indicate that Homeplus stores have recently been flooded with unexpected crowds, leading to wait times of up to 30 minutes.
Over the past weekend, posts and photos sharing the situation at Homeplus stores appeared one after another online.
The photos show long lines of customers pushing shopping carts.
One netizen who visited the scene described the situation, saying, "The wait time just for the checkout line is over 30 minutes," and added, "The atmosphere is clearly different from usual."
What is the reason for this influx of customers?
It is due to the drastic discount rates.
As major daily necessities are being offered at half price, it appears that a "stocking up" mentality has taken hold among shoppers.
One customer remarked, "It feels like a goodbye sale, which is bitter, but the price advantage is so significant that I end up waiting in line to buy things," adding, "Seeing so many people here, I also feel sad wondering if the company really cannot recover."
Previously, the Seoul Rehabilitation Court decided to terminate Homeplus's corporate rehabilitation process, citing reasons such as a lack of operating funds.
