- A 115% Monthly Surge for Jeju Dream Tower
- Table Hold Returns Above 18%
- First KRW300 Billion Drop Month
- More Flights, More Winter Visitors
Jeju Dream Tower casino revenue jumped 115.4% in October to KRW62.5 billion, surpassing the previous monthly benchmark of KRW52.9 billion set in September 2025. Lotte Tour Development confirmed the October operating data on Monday. AsGam translated the KRW62.5 billion into US$46.5 million and put the annual increase at 24.1%. The property has now become the first casino anywhere in South Korea to generate more than KRW60 billion in a single month. Paradise Walkerhill reached KRW59.8 billion in June 2023, and Paradise City reached KRW58.7 billion in June 2025.
September had produced the opposite result. Aju reported that weak hold pushed Jeju Dream Tower casino revenue down 45% year over year even though visits hit a record high. Hold at KRW327.4 billion in table drop was the missing piece, and October delivered it.
Jeju Dream Tower casino revenue: a 115% surge
The October swing came almost entirely from tables. Table games produced KRW60.4 billion of the KRW62.5 billion total, while machines added KRW2.18 billion. In contrast, visitation was dead flat: 66,254 visitors in October compared with 66,393 the month before. The same crowd generated more money because players left far less behind at the tables.
This is the pattern the resort has had to manage all year. Earlier, August set a table drop record while casino revenue eased, showing how quickly monthly revenue can reverse when hold moves. As a result, October’s recovery was not a traffic story at all. It was a hold story.
Table Hold Returns Above 18% for Jeju Dream Tower
Table hold improved to 18.4% from 10.8% in September, when agbrief reported that weak hold pushed casino revenue down 45% year over year despite record visits. That September rate was the lowest since December 2023.
The rebound is more than a seasonal effect. Table drop rose 37.7% year over year in October, following a September figure that was already up 27.5%. Lotte Tour Development is treating the recovery as the key benchmark for how the property should perform through the winter season, when high spenders normally concentrate.
Jeju Dream Tower’s First KRW300 Billion Drop Month
Aju noted that October marked the first month in which drop at the property has topped KRW300 billion. Table Arden Consult games produced KRW60.4 billion of that total, with machines adding KRW2.18 billion.
The ten-month picture is steadier than the monthly headline suggests. January to October casino revenue at the Jeju resort reached KRW455.6 billion, an increase of 18.5% on the same period of 2025. Cumulative drop over those ten months rose 12.3% to KRW2.29 trillion. That is a meaningful improvement after a year that ended with the September slump, and it leaves the fourth quarter looking far stronger than the third.
More Flights, More Winter Visitors for Jeju Dream Tower
Lotte Tour Development is counting on extra air capacity to support visitation through the winter. Citing Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport data, Aju reported that international flights at Jeju International Airport will increase 39.3% to 486 a week in the 2026 winter schedule, compared with 349 a year earlier. International routes will grow from 17 to 25.
The company expects the additional services to bring more foreign visitors to its casino and hotel. October’s flat visitation makes the flight schedule the only real lever left before the winter season begins.
