JW Blue from Beijing Duty Free - Real or fake?

I was in Beijing yesterday at T2 and bought a 750ml bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue for 809 RMB ($118.5 USD) from Sunrise Duty Free. I was planning on giving it as a gift to a coworker here in Korea, but a friend here is convinced its fake as a lot of the booze in China is fake. I know even Carrefour was fined for selling fake booze - but I guess Duty Free would be ok. I'm sure its fine but has anyone ever heard anything about fake booze being sold in Duty Free stores in China?

-- also the couple next to me accidentally grabbed my duty free bag (looked identical to theirs )while getting off the plane in Incheon, had to sprint like a maniac to catch them. Really hope that major exertion of energy wasn't for nothing!
