Chinese group tourists in S. Korea

Chinese tourists on a group tour wait in line to enter a duty-free shop of Lotte Department Store in Seoul on Aug. 23, 2023, in this photo provided by the store. On Aug. 11, China lifted a ban on group tours to South Korea, which had been halted six years ago due to the deployment in South Korea of the U.S. defense shield, the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense, which Beijing sees as a security threat.
