Homeplus stated that the stabbing incident that occurred on October 13 in Incheon’s Guwol-dong was not related to its store.
In a statement, Homeplus clarified, "The exact location of the incident was the second-floor food court of the C&C complex," adding, "Homeplus Incheon Guwol is located in the basement of the building and is unrelated to this incident."
Earlier that afternoon, a stabbing incident took place in the large commercial facility housing the Homeplus Incheon Guwol store, injuring eight customers.
One of the eight injured individuals is reported to be in cardiac arrest, while the other seven have been transported to the hospital for treatment.
Initially, it was believed that the incident occurred within the Homeplus store, but it has since been confirmed that the actual location of the incident was the food court on the second floor of the same building.
