Kent Hotel's Ocean Views Redefine Gwangalli Beach Bliss

Generation MZ is at the forefront of shaping the latest trends, displaying distinctive spending habits that set them apart. When it comes to their expenditures, they prioritize allocating both time and money to places that hold significant personal value for them. 

What is MZ Generation?

The MZ Generation, a term only used in South Korea, refers collectively to the Millennials (born in the early 1980s to early 1990s) and Generation Z (born in the mid-1990s to early 2000s). People belonging to this generation make up 32.5% of the population as of 2021.

The Rising Trend, Value Reigns Supreme 

MZs are driven by consumption behaviors that deeply resonate with their hearts. With an array of avenues available for self-expression, they place a premium on showcasing their distinct identity that sets them apart from the crowd. Through their consumption choices, they seek to communicate their individuality and assert their inherent worth to others. 

 

 

 

In recent times, MZs have developed a particular affinity for hotels. Hotels, for them, serve a purpose far beyond just a place to spend a single night; they are sanctuaries of relaxation. This modern phenomenon, often coined as a "staycation," has seen the rise in popularity of hotel lounges as a crucial element. MZs find solace in these inviting spaces, relishing in the captivating vistas and delectable cuisine on offer. By sharing their experiences on social media, they forge connections with others, adding a social dimension to their staycation adventures.

Busan: Igniting the Travel Scene 

"Where's the best place for a staycation?" 

The first thing that comes to mind when you think of a staycation is 'ocean view'. You can't go wrong with an ocean view in Busan, as it's the only place in South Korea where the East and South Seas meet. 

 

※ Gwangan Bridge

 

Many people talk about "Haeundae" as a representative vacation spot in Busan, but many people who have traveled to Busan and know locals often visit "Gwangalli". The reason Gwangalli Beach is famous is because of Gwangan Bridge. Gwangan Bridge stimulates emotions by blending with the sea. At night, it stands out even more with the lights.

If you take a long walk along Gwangalli Beach, you'll find busking and other performances. Nowadays, a drone light show is held every Saturday. There are about 500 drones for regular performances and up to 1,500 drones for special performances, with a different theme every week.
