Writing a Korean Address in English
Korean addresses go from the largest unit to the smallest; English addresses go the other way. Flip the order, romanize each part, and end with the country name.
1. Order and Format
- Detail: unit/floor first (e.g. 4F, 101-dong 202-ho)
- Street: building number + road name (123 Teheran-ro)
- District/City: Gangnam-gu, Seoul
- Country: Republic of Korea (or South Korea)
2. Practical Tips
Exact spelling matters less than you might think — once the parcel reaches Korea, local carriers read the address. What must be accurate is the 5-digit postal code and a consistent, readable romanization. For passports, banks, and official documents, use the official English road-name address from juso.go.kr.
