Among them is <strong>Grand Korea Leisure Co Ltd<\/strong> (GKL) which saw its earnings fall by 60.3% in the three months to June 30. The same goes for the state-run <strong>Kangwon Land casino<\/strong> whose revenue also dipped by nearly 12% quarter-on-quarter.<\/p>\n<h2>GKL\u2019s Q2 Profits Down 60.3% from Q1<\/h2>\n<p>GKL operates three casinos in South Korea under the Seven Luck brand, two of them are located in Seoul, while the other is in Busan. The venues are open only to foreign customers. From April to June 2023, gaming profit across the three casinos stood at KRW8.58 billion (US$6.5 million) and while that represents a 7.6% increase year-on-year, the figure is down 60.3% from the KRW21.60 billion recorded in Q1.<\/p>\n<p>Q2 sales for GKL fell by 8.2% sequentially to KRW100.23 billion. Table games accounted for KRW90.62 billion (a drop of 8.6% from the previous quarter), with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.top10casinowebsites.net\/slots\">slots<\/a> sales up 17.5% to KRW9.87 billion. <\/p>\n<p>Total casino drop covering both table games and slot machines stood at KRW836.01 billion for the second quarter of the year, up 10.9% sequentially.<\/p>\n<p>But that wasn\u2019t enough to keep up with the casino operator\u2019s strong performance in the past quarter. GKL, which is a subsidiary of the Korea Tourism Organization, did not provide further details about the reason for the Q2 revenue decline. <\/p>\n<h2>Kangwon Land Also Suffers Revenue Drop for Q2<\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.top10casinowebsites.net\/news\/casino-operator-kangwon-land-facing-fresh-flak-for-2015-scandal\/\">Kangwon Land<\/a>, which runs the only casino in South Korea that accepts local customers, was also not spared from the downward trend, as the operator\u2019s net income suffered an 11.9% quarter-on-quarter drop.   <\/p>\n<p>Kangwon Land generated KRW89.48 billion in profits for the second quarter of 2023. That\u2019s compared to the KRW101.54 billion it recorded in Q1. Overall sales were down 7.5% sequentially to KRW331.13 billion, though that translates to a 6.3% increase compared to Q2 of 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Mass-table casino gross gaming revenue (GGR) at the venue for Q2 dropped 5.5% to KRW158.3 billion, with its membership club also posting KRW158.3 billion in GGR, a 12.5% decline from the first quarter. GGR generated by slot machines also dropped by 2.5% sequentially to KRW135.2 billion.
