常见问题

Is English acceptable for business in South Korea?

While many Koreans speak English, consumer-facing content must be in Korean. Work with local partners for translation and cultural adaptation. Poor translations will hurt credibility.

What e-commerce platforms dominate in South Korea?

Naver Shopping, Coupang, and G Market are dominant. Social commerce via KakaoTalk and Instagram is growing. Amazon has very limited presence.

How important is celebrity endorsement in South Korea?

Very important. K-pop celebrities and influencers drive purchasing decisions. Micro-influencers are also effective. Consider K-beauty trends even for non-beauty products.
