Located in Jeju Island, South Korea, the Jeju Dream Tower delivered an impressive report card in 2025. According to the consolidated financial statements released by the operator, Lotte Tour Development Company, the integrated resort's casino sales last year achieved a remarkable leap, with annual performance surging by more than 60%, fully reflecting the strong recovery trend of global gaming demand.
Annual Performance Overview: Casino Revenue as the Absolute Engine
During the period from January to December 2025, the total casino sales reached 476.6 billion Korean Won (approximately 329.6 million USD), indicating a stunning year-over-year growth of 61.8% compared to 2024. Undoubtedly, the casino business is the core driver of revenue growth for the resort. This significant increase is mainly due to the warming of the international tourism market, especially the continuous release of gambling demand for foreign tourists. As one of the largest integrated resorts in South Korea, this landmark building, which opened at the end of 2020, is deeply benefiting from the industry recovery.
Business Breakdown: Table Games and Slot Machines Perform Differently
Let's take a closer look at the composition of casino revenue. Among them, table games revenue accounted for the lion's share, contributing 455.6 billion Korean Won (approximately 315.1 million USD) for the whole year, with a year-over-year increase of 64.9%. In contrast, slot machine revenue was 21.1 billion Korean Won (approximately 14.6 million USD), which also maintained a healthy growth of 14.4%, but the scale and growth rate were significantly different from the table games business. This shows that the preference of high-end tourists for table games remains the main source of revenue growth.
In contrast, the performance of the non-gambling sector was somewhat flat. The resort's hotel business recorded revenue of 80.6 billion Korean Won (approximately 55.7 million USD) throughout 2025, with a slight year-over-year decrease of 4.8%. This indicates that there may still be room for improvement in attracting pure leisure and family tourists. Detailed hotel performance is as follows:
•Annual Performance: Revenue slightly decreased, contrasting with the booming casino business.
•Seasonal Fluctuations: Despite the overall decline throughout the year, in December alone, hotel revenue reached 7.5 billion Korean Won, achieving a month-over-month increase of 16% and a year-over-year increase of 36.8%, showing strong holiday demand at the end of the year.
Year-End Sprint and Future Outlook
Looking specifically at December 2025, Jeju Dream Tower's casino sales were 41 billion Korean Won (approximately 28.3 million USD). Although there was a slight decrease from November, it still soared by 73.8% compared to December 2024, showing a very strong growth momentum. Among them, table games revenue was 38.9 billion Korean Won, up 75.6% year-over-year; slot machine revenue was 2.1 billion Korean Won, up 46.4% year-over-year.
Overall, Jeju Dream Tower, with its positioning as a "casino resort exclusive to foreigners," successfully captured the market recovery opportunity. Its performance also provides a specific case study for observing the recovery of the high-end tourism and gambling market in Northeast Asia.
