Why tourists can’t just order on Coupang
Korea has some of the fastest online shopping in the world, but it is built for residents. Signing up and paying on Korean online stores usually requires identity verification through a Korean mobile number and a Korean-issued card or bank account. A foreign SIM, an eSIM data plan or a foreign credit card often fails at one of those steps — and even if checkout works, the courier needs a Korean address and a contact number to call.
We are the missing step. Unboxing Korea (Hana For You, business reg. 326-46-01326) places the order with our Korean account, pays in won, and has it delivered to your hotel in your check-in name. You pay us in US dollars. We are an independent service and are not affiliated with Coupang or any other store.
How pricing works
| What you order | Price |
|---|---|
| Ready-made kits (first aid, baby, rain, winter, chargers…) | Fixed “from” price on each page below |
| Anything else from Korean online stores | Item price + 40% + $5, converted to USD |
Example: an item listed at ₩20,000 → ₩28,000 with the 40% → about $19 at roughly ₩1,445 per US$ → about $24 with the $5. We always send the exact USD total before you pay. The 40% covers the Korean-side order, payment, delivery coordination and our time; there are no hidden fees.

FAQ — Korean online shopping for tourists
Can I use Coupang as a foreigner?
Usually not as a short-term visitor: Korean stores typically ask for Korean mobile identity verification and a Korean payment method. We order on your behalf instead.
Is it really next day?
Yes for orders paid by 10 PM KST, delivered to your hotel front desk the next day. Only suitcases are delivered the same day.
Can it arrive before I check in?
Some hotels refuse parcels that arrive the day before a guest checks in, so we ask for your check-in date and schedule around it.
What if an item is out of stock?
We suggest an equivalent first and only order after you agree.
What about refunds?
Our service fee is non-refundable. Products follow the selling store’s return policy.
