The Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority (MTGA) has entered a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Incheon International Airport Corporation (IIAC) to develop a new integrated hotel-casino resort in South Korea.
Under terms of the MoU, the new gateway entertainment city will be developed on 800-acres of land owned by IIAC.
As part of the development team, Mohegan Sun is joined by Miura Holdings Asia, a multi-purpose investment vehicle focused on gaming, hotel and food and beverage activities in the US and Asia.
MTGA president Bobby Soper said: "We are pleased to have reached this monumental agreement with Incheon International Airport Corporation, which is a testament to MTGA’s performance and ability to develop and operate premier, world-class assets at the highest level."

It will also feature 18,500m² of retail, food, art and music entertainment space, including a Korean village, film studio and a native American cultural and arts experience.
