A convenient store for affordable and reliable beauty products in Korea.

Olive Young is one of the most common beauty stores in Korea.

You will see it almost everywhere.
Near subway stations.
Inside shopping malls.
On busy streets.

If you want to buy Korean skincare or cosmetics,
this is usually the easiest place to start.

Why I recommend Olive Young

The prices are reasonable.
The quality is generally reliable.

You can find:

Many items are affordable,
so it is easy to try new products without spending too much.

That makes it a practical stop during your trip.

Where to go

Because there are so many locations,
the simplest choice is:

Go to the store closest to your hotel.

You do not need to search for a special branch.
Most stores carry similar products.

There are three Olive Young stores inside COEX Mall.

The entrance connected to Samseong Station is convenient,
but that location is usually the smallest and the most crowded.

If you walk a little further inside the mall,
you will find a larger store.

That one is usually easier to browse
and more comfortable to shop.

You do not need a reservation.
You can simply walk in.

Staff are used to international customers,
and many stores provide tax refund service.

Shopping feels straightforward.
That is why I often suggest starting here.

When friends visit Seoul,
this is usually the first place I take them.

Not for luxury.
Just for simple, reliable shopping.

That is enough.
