Hi-Mart (하이마트) is South Korea's largest electronics and home appliance retail chain, now under Lotte, with hundreds of stores nationwide and a full online catalogue at e-himart.co.kr. It's where Korean households go for washing machines, refrigerators, TVs, air conditioners, and everyday electronics at competitive prices.
Signing up on e-himart.co.kr requires a Korean phone number, and payment is limited to Korean-issued cards — both out of reach for most foreigners in Korea. Send us the product link and we place the order with your Korean address as the delivery address, so Hi-Mart's own delivery team brings it straight to your door while you pay us with PayPal.
Why ordering from Hi-Mart is hard for foreigners
Account signup needs a Korean phone number
Creating an e-himart.co.kr account requires SMS verification through a Korean mobile number. Without a Korean SIM, you can't even register, let alone check out.
Korean-issued card required
Even once you're past registration, payment only accepts domestically issued credit and debit cards — foreign cards are declined at checkout.
Large appliances need a precise delivery address
Washing machines, refrigerators, and TVs are scheduled for delivery and sometimes installation, so an incomplete or incorrectly formatted address can delay or misdirect the whole order.
How Order in Korea solves it
We hold the verified local account
Order in Korea maintains a verified Hi-Mart account with a Korean phone number and local payment method, so we can check out on your behalf without you needing either.
We pay with a method Hi-Mart accepts
You pay us through PayPal in your own currency; we pay Hi-Mart directly with our Korean payment method, so the card block never reaches you.
Delivered — and the courier call handled — in Korean
We enter your Korean address precisely and take the courier's confirmation call in Korean, so your washing machine, TV, or fridge arrives at the right door without you having to answer a call you can't understand.

Hi-Mart — frequently asked questions
Can I order from Hi-Mart if I don't have a Korean phone number or card?
Yes. Send us the product link from e-himart.co.kr along with the option and quantity you want. We check out using our own verified Hi-Mart account and Korean payment method, so neither a Korean SIM nor a Korean card is something you ever need.
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 cost, not profit: PayPal takes roughly 4.4% plus $0.30, and currency conversion adds another 3-4%, leaving us a margin of about 2-4%.
Where will my Hi-Mart order be delivered?
Any Korean address — your apartment, officetel, dormitory, hotel, or Airbnb. We enter it as the delivery address on the order, and Hi-Mart's own delivery team brings it there directly; we take the confirmation call in Korean if one comes ahead of drop-off.
Can I order a large appliance like a washing machine or refrigerator?
Large appliances are exactly the kind of purchase that makes sense to order this way when you're setting up a home in Korea — but delivery windows and installation scheduling for bulky items can vary by model and building. Mention your building type (apartment, officetel, walk-up) in the order notes so we can flag anything that needs confirming before you pay.
