Doing Business in Busan

Busan is South Korea's second city and its largest port, with shipbuilding, beaches and the Busan International Film Festival.
Busan businesses often target Japanese visitors too.
Key business areas include Haeundae, Seomyeon, Nampo-dong and the Centum City area. Our work for Busan clients is shaped by these local conditions, the languages your customers use (Korean) and the regulations of South Korea.
Busan Market Notes
Who your customers are
Busan's customers include port and shipping firms, shipbuilders, tourism businesses and events such as the Busan International Film Festival. Busan is Korea's largest port and hosts the Busan International Film Festival each October. Haeundae Beach is Korea's best-known beach.
How they choose and contact a business
Busan customers use KakaoTalk and value friendly communication.
When demand peaks
BIFF in October and summer beach season are key moments. Across all channels we plan campaigns before these dates rather than reacting once demand has already peaked.
Where customers search and shop
Searches mention Haeundae, Seomyeon, Nampo-dong and Gwangalli. We use these area names across your website, local SEO, ad targeting and message segments.
Digital Habits and Channels in South Korea
South Korea has among the world's fastest mobile networks, and KakaoTalk is used by almost everyone; Kakao's business message service (AlimTalk for notifications) often replaces SMS. Korean law requires advertising messages to start with the '(광고)' advertising label, include the sender's name and contact details, and obtain separate consent for messages sent between 9 pm and 8 am.
Cards, Kakao Pay, Naver Pay and Samsung Pay dominate payments, and Naver and Coupang are major shopping platforms. Seollal (Lunar New Year) and Chuseok, when gift sets are exchanged, are the biggest retail seasons.
South Korea's economy is led by large conglomerates such as Samsung, Hyundai, SK and LG, which make semiconductors, smartphones, cars, ships and batteries, and the country has very high 5G coverage. VAT is 10%, and prices are in won. Most Koreans live in apartment complexes and use fast delivery services, so time-sensitive delivery updates and coupons are popular. Search and shopping start on Naver as well as Google.

How We Work With Busan Clients
DND Teams is based in Bhopal, India, and works with clients in Busan remotely; we do not have an office in South Korea. Busan is 3 hours 30 minutes ahead of India Standard Time (as of October 2026), so we agree on regular meeting slots that overlap with your working day and keep updates in writing between calls. Quotes can be prepared in INR or KRW (South Korean won) as agreed, and payment terms are set out in the proposal.
Language, Time Zone and Currency in Busan
Customers in Busan mainly use Korean. Busan uses the Asia/Seoul time zone (UTC+09:00 as of October 2026) and is 3 hours 30 minutes ahead of India Standard Time (as of October 2026); the usual working week is Monday to Friday. The local currency is the South Korean won (KRW), and we can quote in USD, KRW or INR.
Korean is the search language, and Naver is a major search portal alongside Google, so SEO plans should cover both.
