    Mohegan’s Inspire Entertainment Resort in Incheon, Korea, is inching closer to its opening date, slated for year-end. Construction of the property, to be located on Yeongjong Island, is underway. Upon completion of all four phases, Inspire is set to become the largest integrated entertainment resort in Northeast Asia.

    Among its amenities, the resort lists a 15,000-seat indoor concert venue, set to be a key feature of the mega property and future home to both high-profile K-pop performances and sporting events. The property, to be located near Incheon International Airport, has reached 63% completion of its Phase 1, Mohegan said on Wednesday, as reported by The Korea Times.

    Mohegan Inspire, set to become the largest integrated entertainment resort in Northeast Asia once all four phases are fully complete, is on track to open its doors by end of this year near Incheon International Airport, with the construction progress for its Phase 1 reaching 63 percent completion, Inspire Entertainment Resort said, Wednesday.

    Inspire Entertainment Resort, the Korean corporation of the U.S. Indigenous-run entertainment and gaming brand Mohegan, held a press conference at the integrated resort's construction site on Incheon's Yeongjong Island, near Incheon International Airport, to showcase the progress of the construction.

    "We're sitting on 4.3 million square meters of land, roughly the same size of Yeouido," said Chen Si, the company's chief operating officer.

    Mohegan is an integrated entertainment resort developer with an Indigenous background that operates seven properties in North America in cities including Las Vegas. Mohegan Inspire will be the company's eighth property.

    The first phase of construction, which is a 2 trillion won ($1.49 billion) project, includes a three-tower luxury hotel with 1,256 rooms, a 15,000-seat arena to host concerts and sporting events, a foreigner-only casino with 700 slot machines, an all-year indoor water park, theme park, dining and shopping area.

    "It's our goal to … attract foreign visitors to the arena to appreciate Korean culture, especially live entertainment and art," Si said, underscoring the company's expertise in building and operating integrated accommodations with entertainment facilities.

    The integrated resort will also include a meeting convention space with a ballroom 10,000 square meters in size.

    "Our strategy is to leverage (the resort's) proximity to the airport to drive business companies from the rest of the Asia-Pacific to host meetings in our facility and benefit the economy here," Si said.

    "We're hoping to complete construction with our partner Hanwha by September and start opening the resort in the fourth quarter."

    He added that the entire resort including the casino is scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2024, after getting the hotel rating and casino license.

    The company estimates the resort to create 3,000 direct jobs in the building and many more indirectly in the region.

    The blueprint for the next phase of construction is due within a year after the resort's opening.

    US-based gaming operator Mohegan has announced that it is planning to open its non-gaming offerings at its $5 billion new South Korean integrated resort by the end of this year, however speculation is rife over when its gaming operations will commence.
    The group shed light on the new timelines for the project during its 4Q22 earnings call, noting that non-gaming offerings would come online “in the latter part of 2023”.

    However, the casino itself is only expected to open “shortly thereafter”, depending on licensing requirements.


    Construction progress is currently at 43 percent, but is running ahead of schedule, however further investments will be needed to complete the massive project.

    Mohegan has tapped the Hanwha Hotel group to manage the three five-star hotel towers which are set to open ‘in the latter half of 2023’- encompassing some 1,270 rooms and suites.

    Mohegan INSPIRE Entertainment Resort (“Mohegan INSPIRE”), is expected to unveil the nation’s first multi-purpose ARENA built to enhance production qualities and event viewing experiences, beginning in 4th Quarter, 2023.

    As Mohegan INSPIRE’s centerpiece entertainment facility, the Arena is garnering attention as Korea’s first state-of-the-art, 15,000-seat performance hall that can support various genres of live events, ranging from K-pop concerts to festivals, touring family shows and major sports tournaments with optimal acoustics, high grade comfortable seating and private VIP suites.

    “Given the strong demand for K-pop and other live performances, Korea’s performing art industry has long been facing a shortage of high-quality that can support shows of top-tier artists from home and abroad, and various cultural events,” said Ray Pineault, CEO and President of Mohegan. “This perhaps explains the expectations building around the Mohegan INSPIRE Arena far ahead of its construction completion. This new venue is poised to emerge as Korea’s first multi-purpose arena that can showcase various types of events, encompassing global artist performances, world-class sports league tournaments such as eSports, MMA, TV award shows, and media IP-based exhibitions,” he added.

    Mohegan INSPIRE shared its vision to deploy the know-how in developing and operating a world-renowned, seven-time ‘Arena of the Year Award’ winner, the Mohegan Sun Arena, to INSPIRE’s new arena. Coupled with a differentiated production infrastructure, the Mohegan INSPIRE Arena is set to transform the entire landscape of the domestic performance arts industry. As a globally recognized arena, Mohegan Sun Arena is chosen by many leading global artists including Mariah Carey, Lady Gaga, Billy Joel, and Queen as the first venue at which to kick off their tours.

    Mohegan INSPIRE Arena will be equipped with a cutting-edge, full-stage monitor and video wall lighting to offer an optimal view from any seat, along with a HD×4K live broadcasting system to treat the audience to an enhanced immersive experience. Leveraging the advanced Meyer Sound Panther System to elevate performance sound quality will also help raise the consumer experience bar in Korea.

    A core strength of the Arena lies in its highly efficient stage system that allows standard-specification stages to be installed or dismantled within just two hours. This means that the venue can put on a K-pop concert today followed by a global artist’s show tomorrow, enabling many different events to be held efficiently.

    INSPIRE’s arena differentiators also include exclusive skybox suites on the 3rd and 4th floor of the venue with panoramic views of the stage, premium quality food & beverage and private entryway into the arena, catering to both groups and discerning individual patrons.

    Mohegan INSPIRE has announced its ambition to attract over 4 million guests per year with the help of opening the first specialized performance hall in Korea. The facility is expected to provide INSPIRE with a competitive edge in the broader performance arts and culture industry through its cutting-edge infrastructure and exceptional programming.

    “We are pleased to present Mohegan INSPIRE Arena, a multi-purpose performance hall that never existed in Korea before. We will strive to promote various aspects of K-culture from K-pop to K-lifestyle events to E-sports competitions,” said Michael Jensen, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) of Mohegan INSPIRE. He added, “Through INSPIRE Arena, we shall promote the resurgence of the domestic performance culture industry and tourism industry of Korea, as well as provide lifetime memories to visitors and artists from Korea and the world.”

    Soon to be the largest integrated resort in Northeast Asia, Mohegan INSPIRE’s construction is on track now with the aim to open in the 4th Quarter of next year. Once INSPIRE is open, the goal is to catapult Yeongjong Island to a status of a new entertainment mecca featuring top-of-the-line business and leisure facilities including three 5-star hotels, a large-scale ARENA dedicated to Tier 1 artists, a foreigner-only casino, a large convention center, an indoor water park and an outdoor family park.

    Inspire Entertainment Resort, being built in the Incheon Free Economic Zone, is set to become the largest integrated resort in Northeast Asia upon completion, with three five-star hotels, a multifunctional performance arena, a foreigners-only casino, and an indoor water dome.


    Inspire Entertainment Resort said Tuesday that it has signed a memorandum of understanding with Samsung Electronics and Hyundai Futurenet to build a high-end LED signage system in its resort under construction in Incheon, South Korea.
    The agreement established a consortium between Samsung and the Hyundai Department Store Group’s ICT platform unit, Hyundai Futurenet, on Monday to offer dynamic and futuristic ICT experiences for vacationers. As part of the consortium, Samsung Electronics will provide its hardware system, “Samsung Smart Signage,” and Hyundai Futurenet will participate in the joint investment and operation of an immersive digital media museum within the resort.
