On the upcoming 19th of January this year (Friday), President and Mrs. Dongki Park of the Lotte World and their entire management again cordially invite all the ambassadors and Madams to visit the highest skyscraper of the Republic Korea, and view the entire stretch of the southern Seoul from the 123rd-floor Observation Room of the Tower.
Individual Invitation is transmitted to each Excellency today. In the case of our transmission failure, please advise us at 010-3388-1682 (Ms. Kim Jung-mi).

Ambassadors and other senior diplomats pose for the camera shortly before riding a super-speed elevator to the top-floor observation tower. In spite of the height, the high-speed elevators carried the guests up to the top floor in less than a minute.
