About us
Your man in Korea, for anything you need.
Unboxing Korea is an online concierge and proxy service for foreigners. You tell us what you need handled in Korea, we confirm a clear price, and we take care of it on your behalf — one contact, in your language.
Our story
Why we started Unboxing Korea
Korea is wonderful to visit and to do business with — until you hit a wall that only a local can get past. A Korean online store won’t take your foreign card. You left something behind at your hotel. The restaurant everyone raves about only books through a Korean app. Or your company needs a contract reviewed and you have no one on the ground you trust.
We thought visitors and overseas companies deserved a simpler way, so we became that person on the ground. Tell us what you need, we confirm a clear price, and we handle it on your behalf — no Korean address, account, or language required.
Today we cover shopping and proxy buying from Korean stores, lost-item retrieval and return shipping, a personal concierge for hard-to-get reservations and purchases, a business concierge for overseas companies, and our original suitcase delivery. One contact, in your language — anything Korea, handled.
