To mark its 47th anniversary, Lotte Department Store is holding its 2026 Winter Sale, offering discounts of up to 50% on more than 400 brands across a range of categories, including fashion.

Lotte Department Store said on Nov. 10 that it will offer gift certificates in partnership with credit card companies at all of its stores from Nov. 13 to 15. Customers who spend at least 200,000 won or 400,000 won in a single day on products from a single brand using Hyundai, KB Kookmin or NH NongHyup cards will receive 5% of their purchase amount back in Lotte mobile gift certificates. During Fashion Week, from Nov. 12 to 15, customers who purchase products from a single brand using a Lotte Card will receive Lotte gift certificates worth 10% of their purchase amount.

This year's Christmas events will center on Hey Yeti, a newly introduced character. Starting Nov. 19, customers who scan a QR code on the 4-meter-tall Hey Yeti sculpture in front of Lotte Department Store's main branch will receive one of 16 KakaoTalk emoticons, available on a first-come, first-served basis to 10,000 people. The emoticons can be used for 30 days after download.

From Nov. 20 to 26, customers can read the story of the first meeting between Hey Yeti and Ttonttu, the store's existing Christmas character, on the Lotte Department Store app and enter a prize draw. The prizes are Fast Pass tickets to the Lotte Town Jamsil Christmas Market for 50 winners and Hey Yeti emoticons for 15,000 winners.

Starting Dec. 4, customers who spend at least 150,000 won in a single day at five stores—the Main Branch, Jamsil Branch, Incheon Branch, Dongtan Branch and Busan Main Branch—will receive a Hey Yeti 3D doll key ring on a first-come, first-served basis.

In addition, on Nov. 19, Lotte Department Store's official YouTube channel will release Christmas content featuring fortune teller Park Seongjun. The two-part series will cover topics including Hey Yeti's physiognomy, year-end practices for improving one's luck, and feng shui at the Christmas display area in the Main Branch.

"For the year-end season, we have prepared a variety of events so customers can enjoy the special Christmas atmosphere throughout our stores, alongside the winter sale," said Park Sangwoo, head of the marketing division at Lotte Department Store. "With our new Christmas character, Hey Yeti, we aim to expand our Christmas universe and offer customers a distinctive experience. We hope you will look forward to and take an interest in the special Christmas Lotte Department Store has prepared for this winter."
