AI Agents in Fashion Retail: Seoul Edition”
AI Agents in Fashion Retail: Seoul Edition 1. Why Seoul? The Perfect Intersection of Fashion & Tech Seoul is not only South Korea’s capital and cultural powerhouse but also a fast-growing fashion and technology hub. Korean fashion has gained global visibility via K-pop, global e-commerce platforms and dynamic street styles. At the same time, South Korea is one of the world’s most digitally connected economies, with advanced infrastructure, strong AI research capability and a youthful consumer base eager for innovation. As fashion retail shifts into experiences rather than just products, Seoul offers a unique “test-bed” for AI agents: brands can experiment with high tech (virtual avatars, generative design, smart fitting) and real-world retail (offline stores, omni-channel).
