Bass is correct, it is open. Almost all grocery stores will be open.

I've heard Christmas in Korea described as "Valentine's Day 2". That seems about right.

Just got back from Lotte Mart, and it was packed, so I'm sure E-Mart is open as well.

Wow, I couldn't believe how all the stores were open and how many people were actually moving about on a cold Christmas day. It was surreal.

A few years ago (as in 10 or 12), almost everything except for the random mom&pop stores were closed on all holidays. Things have changed a lot here!!
