1, What is Your Return/Exchange Policy?
We are dedicated to providing our customers with the best service possible.
To facilitate a speedy service when initiating a return or exchange, please ensure you have the following information ready before contacting our Customer Service Department:
- Your order number.
- The product name of the item you wish to return or exchange.

If you wish to return an item because it wasn’t what you expected, you have 15 days from the receipt of your order to do so, provided the items are unopened and in their original condition.
*Note: If the replacement items are out of stock, the value of the item will be refunded as Reward Credit.
2, How Are Refunds Processed?
We offer two refund methods for your convenience:
(Note: For purchases made with DukuATM, refunds can only be issued as reward points.)
Reward Points Refund: Should you choose to receive your refund in the form of reward points, we will credit your account with the equivalent amount of the product, plus an additional 2 USD bonus.
Cash Refund: Alternatively, we can process the refund of the product amount directly to your PayPal or Eximbay account.
Please inform us of your preferred refund method so we can accommodate your request promptly.
When will my credit card be charged?
Your credit card will be charged only when your order has been shipped. This ensures you are billed only for items as they are on their way to you, reflecting our commitment to fair billing practices. Before shipping, your order will be carefully prepared, and you will not be charged during this preparation phase.
Should you choose to use a third-party payment platform, such as PayPal, the charge to your credit card may still occur at the time of shipping. However, the exact timing of the charge can vary based on the platform’s policies. We advise reviewing the terms and conditions of your chosen payment method for specific details on their billing practices.
Is my credit card information safe?
For enhanced security, all credit card transactions on our website are processed through a secure third-party payment gateway. This means your credit card information is handled with the highest standard of security and confidentiality and is not directly processed by our website. We collaborate with reputable payment intermediaries to ensure that your payment information is processed securely and efficiently, safeguarding your personal and financial details at every step of the transaction.
What currency will be used when charging my credit card?
All transactions made with a credit card on our platform will be processed in United States Dollars (USD).

Shipping Rates
At Koreandirect.com, we aim for complete price transparency. Therefore, the price of each product does not include shipping costs. The cost of shipping is calculated based on the weight of your order and varies according to the selected shipping method and the destination country.
When Will My Order Arrive?
To estimate the arrival time of your order, you can use the following formula: Estimated Delivery Time = Product Availability + Estimated Shipping Time of Chosen Shipping Method.
Product Availability: This refers to the time needed before your order can be shipped out, based on the availability of the items. If your order contains items with varying availability times, we will use the item with the longest availability time to determine the Expected Ship Out Date.
Estimated Shipping Time: This is determined by the shipping method you select during checkout. Each shipping option offers an estimated timeframe for delivery once your order has left our warehouse.
The Expected Ship Out Date is when we anticipate your order will leave our warehouse. This date is calculated based on the item in your order with the longest availability time.
How Will My Orders Be Shipped?
We prioritize promptness in our shipping process. Therefore, every order is typically dispatched within 72 business hours from the moment your order is received.
Once your order is on its way, we will provide you with tracking numbers via email, enabling you to monitor your package’s journey to your doorstep. Please ensure your email address is correct at checkout to receive these updates without any issues.
Will My Shipment Come With a Tracking Number or Code?
Yes, every shipped order comes with a tracking number. Once your parcel is dispatched, you will receive an email from us containing all the essential order details, including the shipment tracking number. This enables you to monitor your package’s progress until it reaches you. Please ensure your email address is accurately provided during checkout to receive these important updates promptly.
Can My Shipment Be Delivered to a Post Office Box?
Unfortunately, we are unable to deliver shipments to P.O. Box, APO, FPO, or DPO addresses. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and recommend providing a physical address for your order to ensure smooth and efficient delivery.
What Happens to My Order if It Can’t Be Delivered and Is Returned?
All shipments returned to us are deemed “undeliverable.” Common reasons for undeliverable shipments include an incorrect shipping address, failed delivery attempts by the post office provider (e.g., the recipient is unavailable), or unclaimed shipments at the courier agent.
Upon receiving undeliverable shipments, we will reach out to customers via email to discuss reshipment arrangements. Please be aware that all reshipments will incur handling fees in addition to reshipment fees, which are consistent with our standard shipping rates. These reshipment fees apply even if the original shipment qualified for free shipping. There may also be additional courier charges for the return shipping.
If a refund is requested, the customer will be responsible for covering the associated costs. After we receive and inspect the returned package, a refund will be processed in a manner consistent with our refund policy.
Where Are Orders Shipped From?
All orders are meticulously processed and dispatched from our state-of-the-art warehouse located in South Korea, ensuring quality and efficiency in delivery.
What Are Reward Points?
