In celebration of the year of the black tiger, JW Marriott Hotel Seoul marks the beginning of the lunar year with the Yut-Nori with Black Tiger package, a promotion curated for families celebrating the nation's biggest holiday together.
Yut-Nori is a traditional Korean family board game played during the Lunar New Year. The yut sticks are long wooden sticks split into halves that are used like dice. Players take turns to throw them into the air and can move tokens on the board depending on the number of sticks facing upwards. The goal of the game is to bring all the tokens back to the starting point.
The package features four yut-shaped baguettes, a yut board, and tiger-face tokens handcrafted by the hotel's pastry team for a novel family game experience. The package also includes two glasses of Black Tiger Guinness, created by master mixologists at the hotel's seventh-floor MOBO Bar.
Guests will be given a lucky draw gift from a selection of room or buffet vouchers, and hotel items as a new year's gift. The package is available during the Lunar New Year holidays, from Friday to Feb. 6.
