A Day At A Dog-Friendly Outlet Mall in South Korea

May 18, 2026

When we love something, we can't get enough of it. The same goes with dog-friendly places we've found around Seoul and South Korea. When we find that dog-friendly cafe, restaurant, shopping mall, hotel, resort, or park we love, we become frequent visitors.

There isn't one particular criterion that makes a dog-friendly place great for us though. It's a balance of a variety of factors including how welcoming and comfortable a place is for my dogs and their personalities while being a place we humans enjoy.

One top consideration is whether it's appropriate for senior dogs. Think dog strollers, outdoor space, and plenty of seating areas.

And a point to keep in mind are the pet etiquette rules in place at dog-friendly places. Think enclosed dog strollers in some areas and cleaning up after your dog etc.

Location: Lotte Premium Outlet Uiwang, Gyeonggi-Do, South Korea

This outlet mall is a place that we love to visit. We fell in love with this outlet mall a couple years ago. What we love about it:

Not far from Seoul. It feels like a drive down the road!
Outdoor walking space and indoor walking space perfect for window shopping while getting our dog walking steps in when the weather is way too hot or way too cold.
Dog-friendly food court and dedicated indoor dining seating areas for families with dogs. Yes! It's nice to be able to enjoy a meal with your dog by your side. And the food options are amazing!
A lot of stores allow dogs to enter in a dog stroller. This makes shopping a lot easier.
Plenty of seating around the mall for the moments you need to take a break from all the excitement.

We've visited this outlet mall so many times. During the week, on the weekends, during Christmas and more. They frequently have different decorations, pop up stores, and markets that make our visit and outdoor walks all the more exciting.
