Incheon Free Trade Zone’s image of the future resort complex
The Inspire Integrated Resort is to be built in the Incheon Free Economic Zone near the city’s international airport. The first phase will include a five-star hotel with more than 1,000 rooms, a 15,000-capacity concert hall, an indoor waterpark, shopping mall and casino.
The financing success was announced today by the Free Economic Zone. If all goes to plan, Inspire will open in 2023, when it is hoped the Covid-19 pandemic will have subsided and international travel resumed.
The project is being developed by a consortium made up of Connecticut-based Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority (MGTA), Korean industrial company KCC and UK investor Miura Holdings, in cooperation with Incheon International Airport.
Mohegan agreed the project with the Incheon International Airport Corporation back in June 2015. It said at the time that the resort would “create an epicentre for Korea’s growing entertainment, tourism and hospitality industry”.
Mohegan’s early concept design for the resort
Incheon airport commented that the resort would cement its position as not only “the best airport in the world but also as a top leisure destination in Asia”.
It said: “We look forward to benefiting from MTGA’s expertise and collaborating with our existing partners and 40,000 employees to execute on this vision and deliver exceptional experiences for our guests.”
Incheon plans to develop three resort complexes in the economic zone – Inspire, Paradise City and RFKR.
Paradise City opened in April 2017, but the development of the remaining projects has been delayed by the…
“We have a proven track record in developing and operating leading integrated entertainment resorts in North America with our successes in Connecticut, Las Vegas and Niagara Falls, and we look forward to taking this success abroad as the first American IR launched in Korea,” said James Gessner Jr., Chairman of The Mohegan Tribe and MGE Management Board.
INSPIRE Integrated Resort Co., Ltd. (INSPIRE), MGE’s wholly-owned Korean subsidiary, now has in place the funding needed for the completion of construction of the project, which includes a total of $575 million in equity combining MGE’s $300 million investment and the $275 million raised through global private equity firms, Bain Capital and MBK Partners, and 1.04 trillion Korean won project finance loan (approximately $890 million U.S. dollar equivalent) raised through a three-bank Korean consortium including KB Securities, NH Investment & Securities and Hana Financial Investment, with the participation of Korean financial institutions and with Kookmin Bank Co., Ltd. as facility agent to the loan. Hanwha Engineering & Construction Corp. is the General Contractor for the project, which has provided a completion guarantee as well as a subordinated investment to the project in the amount of 100 billion Korean won (approximately $85.5 million U.S. dollar equivalent). Hanwha Hotel and Resort Co., Ltd. is also participating as a strategic partner of the project and as the hotel operator.
“We anticipate a significant rebound in the tourism and leisure industry following the pandemic, and we look forward to contributing to the Korean economy while at the same time opening and operating a successful, state-of-the-art resort. I’m thrilled to see our international vision for IR development reach this important milestone,” said Bobby Soper, International President for MGE.
The development of the INSPIRE Entertainment Resort is underway within the IBC-III region of the Incheon International Airport, Yeongjong District, Incheon…

MONTVILLE, CT —Mohegan Sun’s Winter Wonderland Escape Room opens Friday and promises fun for the whole family. Those who want to participate in the free escape room must have at least one person over 21 years old and a registered account at MoheganSunCasino.com.
“Sunshine Video, a colorful video rental store that was once the home base for guests to escape the Sunshine Slasher,” reads a statement from Mohegan Sun, “is now decked out for the holiday season, complete with tributes to holiday movie classics, and a gif making station with a winter wonderland maze that boasts seven winter vignettes perfect for Instagrammable moments, family photos, and making memories to last for years to come.
“But the real order of the day is to solve Sunshine Video’s latest escape room dilemma. A disgruntled employee was transported into the movie ‘Naughty or Nice’ and has destroyed Santa’s List.

NORWICH – More than 20 people waited outside the St. Vincent de Paul Place food pantry before 9 a.m. Wednesday morning.
Director Jill Corbin said items are readily available to the more than 2,000 families registered with the food pantry. Ahead of Thanksgiving, that generosity includes more than 700 frozen turkeys.
Behind the building, members of the Mohegan Tribal Council stood by a pallet of 100 frozen birds donated to the cause. A day earlier, the Mohegan Tribal Council of Elders had dropped off 100 more.
“The holidays are a special time for everybody,” said Tribal Council Chair James Gessner. “Especially during these times where COVID and everything that has been happening – it’s been tough on people so whatever we can do to help our community.”
Volunteers Martha Murphy of Stonington, left, and Joe Pelliccio of Norwich bag a frozen turkey Wednesday for patrons at St. Vincent de Paul Place in Norwich. In background is volunteer John Drozd of Ledyard.
The tribe’s practice of helping Norwich and surrounding communities over the holidays goes back nearly two decades, according to Mohegan Tribe Chief of Staff Charles Bunnell, and the turkeys delivered by the Mohegans Wednesday are among more than 1,000 purchased for donation in recent weeks.
In addition to Norwich, Bunnell said deliveries would also be made in New London, Montville, and Waterford.

A Peekskill man who fatally shot a man he had set up for a robbery was sentenced Thursday to 25 years to life in state prison.
Michael Jenkins, 22, got the maximum sentence for second-degree murder from state Supreme Court Judge Robert Neary after hearing the victim’s mother describe him as a “depraved human and heathen.”
Jenkins fatally shot Emmanuel Jordan in the victim’s car on Paulding Street in Peekskill on May 8, 2020. The two did not know each other but Jenkins had found Jordan on the internet and set up a meeting to buy painkillers from him.
The shooting occurred at about 6 p.m. but police did not discover his body until about nine hours later.
Immediately after the shooting, Jenkins cleared his links to Jordan from social media and let people know he had Percocet pills to sell.
“To Michael Jenkins it was business as usual,” Assistant District Attorney Laura Murphy told Neary.

COVID stories: New York nurses have seen the unimaginable
In asking for the maximum, Murphy argued that Jenkins had not learned from his previous crimes. Those included an attempted robbery in 2017 and an incident in 2015 when he took someone’s basketball and stabbed him when the person tried to get it back.
Jordan, 27, of Mohegan Lake, had four children. His mother, Barbara Jordan, told Neary she is “repulsed and enraged” by Jenkins and remains traumatized by the killing, with trouble sleeping and flashbacks of the detective’s call that woke her up that morning.
She described Jordan as a good son and father, always willing to help others, and said that she misses his hugs, phone calls, smile and laughter.
“I’m proud of him and proud to say he did not have malice in his heart,” she…
