Seoul’s luxury hotels have once again raised prices for their signature apple mango bingsu, with this summer’s shaved ice desserts now ranging from around 95,000 won to as high as 149,000 won (65-102) — enough to rival the price of a hotel buffet or even a one-night stay at some hotels. According to news reports on Sunday, major five-star hotels in Seoul increased prices for their seasonal mango bingsu menus, citing higher costs for Jeju apple mangoes, labor and premium services.
