In a projected second-round runoff, Lula would reach 42% of the vote against 41% for Flavio Bolsonaro, narrowing the margin to a single point. [^2]

The poll results reflect a strong territorial division of the Brazilian electorate, with the northwest appearing as a zone of strong support for Lula. [^3]

There is distrust regarding Flavio Bolsonaro's capacity to govern, with some electoral support potentially linked to the political figure and legacy of his father, Jair Bolsonaro. [^4]

Coupang and Dango are maintaining an online-only strategy and have not yet opened permanent offline stores, despite operating pop-up events. [^5]

Curi is preparing to open its first permanent offline store, marking a shift from its previous strategy of operating only pop-up stores. [^6]

Musinsa and Ablee are expanding their offline presence, with Musinsa planning to open large-scale beauty stores in Hongdae and Seongsu in September and November. [^7]

Musinsa reported that visitors to its Standard stores reached 16 million from January to May, a 60% increase compared to the same period last year. [^8]
