LES A Casino
38 Sinhwayeoksa-ro, Seogwipo-si, Jeju-do, South Korea · Seogwipo · South Korea
The casino inside the Jeju Shinhwa World resort, and the Asian Poker Tour's Korean home. The APT has held two festivals here in 2026 — the Jeju Classic in January and February, and APT Jeju from 25 September to 7 October — both run with Landing Entertainment Korea, the second of them carrying 135 events over thirteen days.
Entry to the casino is free. The room admits players aged 19 and over who carry accepted identification, and the identification rules are the important part: this is a foreigner-only casino under Korean law. Foreign citizens need a valid foreign passport. Koreans living abroad need a Korean passport plus either a green card issued by another country or a certificate of emigration from the Korean government, and must sign an Overseas Korean Confirmation Letter at the registration counter. The casino states it may refuse entry to anyone who cannot or will not produce those documents.
House rules ban cameras and photography on the floor, along with flip flops, pajamas and pets.
Poker here is tournament poker built around the visiting festivals rather than a year-round cash room, so check the APT calendar before travelling.
