How to convert a Korean address

Find the public base address in Korean, compare the official result, then add apartment details yourself. The interface can be translated, but the official English address is not rewritten into another language.

Search the base address

Enter an area with a road name, lot number or building name. Korean input is required by this search workflow; an English interface does not make it an English-name search engine. Try 서울 강남구 테헤란로 152. If no result appears, remove apartment details and narrow the area.

Select the exact result

Compare the region, road and building number, lot-number address, building name and postal code. Similar names can identify different buildings. Do not choose on postal code alone.

Read the official and convenience outputs

The official area preserves the API result. Selecting an address can request an additional English lot-number address. If none is returned, the service says so instead of creating a translation. The field-based output is a convenience arrangement; uncertain administrative fields are not guessed.

Add details and copy

Enter a building/unit and, when needed, a floor. Compare the options, check every number, and choose a purpose. Amazon, AliExpress and eBay links open a reconstructed form with copy buttons. Names and phone numbers remain manual fields.

Before sending

Check the receiving service's country, required fields, abbreviations and length limits. Review the saved result after autocomplete. Search terms and private apartment details are not saved; public base-address demand may be aggregated as described in Privacy.

Official sources

Read this guide alongside the receiving service's current instructions. Korean official sources establish the address data, not every international form's field layout.
