in military buildings due to increasing concerns about possible leaks of sensitive information through voice recordings, reports The Korea Herald.

As noted by AppleInsider, Apple is holding a February 24 press event for its second South Korean Apple Store, “as the company looks to boost iPhone sales in Samung’s home country.”

No opening date has been announced, but Apple Yeouido will be located in the upscale IFC Mall Seoul.

 A message posted on Apple’s dedicated webpage for the store notes that:

“South Korea’s second Apple Store is coming soon in the heart of vibrant, energetic Seoul. Apple Yeouido is designed as a space for everyone to grow their ideas and creativity. We hope that you will be able to unleash your imagination in this place where you can explore all possibilities, communicate with others, and receive the energy to create something that is not of this world.”Apple Yeouido will be the second South Korean Apple Store, following Apple Garosugil in Gangnam, Seoul, which opened in January 2018.
