SEATTLE, WASHINGTON - Media OutReach - November 20,
2018 - (NASDAQ:AMZN) - Between shopping for gifts, preparing
your home for guests, finding the perfect outfit, and prepping holiday meals,
many people don’t have the time to enjoy the holidays. In fact, according to a
recent survey commissioned by Amazon and conducted online by The Harris Poll,
nearly four in five international adults (78%) admit that they experience stress during
the holiday season, with holiday shopping crowds (51%) and trying to decide
what gifts to buy (49%) topping the list of stressors reported globally.
This year, it’s time to celebrate (not stress about) the holidays, and Amazon is
here to help you deliver smiles to everyone on your list. Throughout the holiday season, customers can easily discover
thousands of deals that ship to Republic of Korea across a wide range of
top-selling departments, from toys and electronics to holiday
entertaining essentials and top clothing brands for the whole family. Keep an
eye out for great deals all season long at https://www.amazon.com/international-deals,
particularly on Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and throughout December in the lead
up to the Holidays.

on their computers and mobile devices, including within the Amazon App for both
