Shinsegae Group said it will hold its "SSG Day" shopping event from Oct. 30 through Nov. 8, with 18 affiliates taking part. The sale aims to ease the burden on consumers amid high prices, offering discounts across fashion, beauty and other categories.

E-mart will sell Korean beef (hanwoo) at half price, the result of six months of planning with local cattle farmers. Regular hanwoo will be discounted 50 percent, while branded hanwoo will be cut by up to 50 percent. For whisky enthusiasts, E-mart will also offer an exclusive limited edition — the Glenallachie 16 Year Korea Exclusive Limited Edition — priced at around 190,000 won ($141).

Shinsegae L&B will exclusively launch "Shafer Founders Pass," the first standalone line from Napa Valley cult winery Shafer, at 99,000 won. Shinsegae Department Store will sell Adidas running shoes at a special price, while Josun Hotel & Resorts will offer 30 percent off its "The Josun Hotel Diffuser Collection."

A clearance event — a signature feature of SSG Day — is also planned. Shinsegae Department Store will run an online clearance for Nike and Adidas products at the steepest discounts of the year. Shinsegae Live Shopping and Shinsegae International will discount popular fashion and beauty products by up to 70 percent. Shinsegae Duty Free will offer up to 70 percent off global beauty, fashion and liquor products, while Shinsegae Casa will discount sofas, beds and other furniture by up to 50 percent.

Meanwhile, customers can vote for their most anticipated signature products through the SSG.com app and website. Those who check the event schedule on the Shinsegae Points app will also receive bonus points.
