Living in Korea | 23 Korean Online Shopping Websites you Will Love


23 Korean Online Shopping Websites you will Love

Online shopping can be very convenient in Korea. From not having to carry heavy things home to finding cheaper prices, internet shopping is simply the best way to shop. Some websites in Korea even offer same and next day delivery options. While G-Market is one of the most popular websites for foreigners because it's partially in English, you may be missing out on a lot of great deals and products on other sites. We've compiled a list of our 23 favorite websites that carry just about everything you could possibly want.


Now, you might be thinking... that's great and all, but I can't read Korean and the payment systems on these websites are just too difficult. Don't worry, if you need help with product details, delivery support or paying for items Wonderful's bilingual personal assistants can help. They can take the pain away and make everything easier. Just take your time to browse and shop, then send links to save time and chat instantly with a live assistant. Or if you're short on time, you can also just send your shopping list over and get everything done for you. International delivery of items is possible with most things as well.


Discount Online Retailers

These websites usually carry a variety of products like clothes, household products, furniture, toys, electronics, gifts, books, sporting equipment, pet supplies, food, and even travel packages. Some of these websites also sell products that are imported from other countries so it's important to check delivery timelines especially if you're in a bit of rush.



Groceries

For groceries, same day deliveries are often possible if you order your items early enough in the day. If same day delivery schedules are full, you can usually expect to get things delivered the next day. If you order perishable items, cold foods will be packed on ice to make sure everything is delivered fresh.



Furniture

The best thing about getting furniture delivered is not having to worry about how you will get a large item home. You can also have someone build and assemble your furniture too.



Tickets

While these websites are most popular for selling tickets to concerts, shows and events they also carry a wide variety of products too. Interpark carries many of the items found in other discount retail websites while Melon and Yes24 are more dedicated to music, books and other entertainment related items.



Electronics

Electronics can be found on many other websites, but the following are a couple great specialty websites worth taking a look at.



Cosmetics/Pharmacy

Korea is the beauty capital of the world and if you're looking for cosmetics, there's an endless list of places you can purchase beauty supplies. Here's a few to consider that carry a nice range of options to consider.




Online Shopping Comparison Websites

For the most comprehensive shopping options, we recommend turning to Naver and Daum which are online shopping directory platforms. You can search a product and find multiple vendors where you can easily compare prices. In addition, this is the best place to search smaller independent sellers.




Used items sale Websites

While Facebook and Craigslist are good sites to look for used items, here are some other popular local options that you might want to consider.
