How Danawa works
Danawa (다나와) is South Korea's dominant price-comparison platform, pulling in listings from hundreds of domestic retailers so you can find the cheapest seller for anything from CPUs and GPUs to smartphones, monitors, cameras, and home appliances. If you're living in Korea and want a fair local price on electronics, Danawa is where Korean shoppers themselves start.
빠른배송Fast dispatch
The seller ships the same day if payment clears before its own cut-off, which differs by seller (noon to 5pm on the listings we checked).
공식판매점Official seller
A shop the manufacturer has certified as an official online seller. Danawa says these promise genuine goods, secured stock and a firm dispatch time.
해외구매Bought from outside Korea
Listed as a separate product. It ships from outside Korea, takes longer and needs the recipient's personal clearance code (개인통관고유부호).
Before you order from Danawa
Watch out for
-
Danawa is not the sellerDanawa only lists offers. The order, delivery and any refund are handled by the shop you land on, and Danawa tells shoppers to confirm final details there. If that shop cancels for lack of stock, we refund you in full.
-
The top price may not apply to youThe cheapest line can be a 현금 (cash or bank-transfer) price, or depend on a specific Korean card's discount. We check the price on the live seller page before buying and tell you if it differs.
-
Parallel imports and 해외구매 listingsItems marked 병행수입 (parallel import) or 해외구매 do not come through the official Korean distributor, so warranty and repairs can differ. Danawa lets you hide them with its keyword-exclude filter.
Tips for ordering Danawa through us
- Tap 최저가 구매하기 (or the shop row you want) and send us the link of the shop page that opens, not the Danawa comparison page.
- Write the shop's name and the price you saw in the order note, so we buy from the same seller at the same price.
- Want the Korean warranty? Pick a 공식판매점 row and skip product names that contain 해외구매 or 병행수입.
Why foreigners get stuck on Danawa — and what we do
The catch is that, apart from its own 샵다나와 section, Danawa doesn't sell the listed item itself — tapping through opens the Korean shop that does, and many expect a Korean-issued card or a Korean phone number at checkout. Paste that shop's product link into our order form and we place the order with your Korean address as the delivery address, so the seller's own courier brings it straight to your door while you pay us with PayPal.

Danawa — frequently asked questions
Can you buy the cheapest price I found on Danawa?
Usually, yes, but the purchase happens on the shop Danawa links to (Gmarket, 11st, Coupang or a PC shop), not on Danawa itself. Send us that shop's product link and the price shown there, and we check stock and price on the live page before paying. If the shop later cancels for lack of stock, you get a full refund.
What does 해외구매 mean on a Danawa listing?
Danawa lists items bought from sellers outside Korea as separate products with 해외구매 in the name. They ship from outside Korea, take longer and need the recipient's personal clearance code (개인통관고유부호). If you want the Korean distributor's warranty, choose a listing without 해외구매 or 병행수입.
How do I order something from Danawa if I don't have a Korean card?
Tap 최저가 구매하기 (or the shop row you want) on Danawa and copy the link of the shop page that opens — not the Danawa comparison page — then paste it into our order form with the option, quantity, and the Korean won price shown. We confirm the total, including our service fee, then buy it using our verified Korean account and local payment method.
What does Order in Korea charge?
Our fee is 10% of the item price, minimum $5, with a minimum order of $20 — shown in your currency before you pay. Most of that covers real costs: PayPal takes roughly 4.4% plus $0.30, and currency conversion adds another 3-4%, so our own margin works out to about 2-4%.
Where can my order be delivered?
Any Korean address — your apartment, officetel, university dormitory, hotel, or Airbnb. We enter it as the delivery address on the order itself, so the seller's courier delivers straight there, and we take the confirmation call in Korean if the courier phones ahead.
Should I check voltage and plug type before ordering electronics?
Korean electronics run on 220V/60Hz with Type C/F plugs, so Korean-market models work as they are in any Korean home, dorm or officetel. The warranty is worth a check: items marked 병행수입 (parallel import) or 해외구매 don't come through the official Korean distributor, so pick an official seller (공식판매점) if the Korean warranty matters to you.
