Korea Business Links

All of the sites included here are in English, providing a wealth of information for non-Koreans looking to live, work, study and play in Korea. We have attempted to include only the best in this list, but if we’ve missed something that you think we should have included, please don’t hesitate to email with your suggestions.

The Top 10

1 Korea.net (www.korea.net)
Calling itself “The Official Website of the Republic of Korea”, this site contains a huge amount of English information about Korea.  The Directory section is particularly useful, with organized categories of links to hundreds of English-language websites. Korea.net is an excellent starting point for all things Korea.
2

Hi Korea, e-Government for Foreigners (www.hikorea.go.kr/pt)
Non-Koreans wishing to learn about government services available to foreigners should not miss this site. With information covering everything from employment and investment to marriage and immigration, Hi Korea is a site worthy of bookmarking.
3

Invest Korea (www.investkorea.org)
This useful site by KOTRA is an excellent resource for business in Korea. In addition to investment opportunities, Invest Korea also provides useful information and tips about doing business and living in Korea.
4 Samsung Economic Research Institute (www.seriworld.org)
SeriWorld provides high-level business analysis from the leading economic research institute in Korea. The registration process to read the articles is free.
5 Korea Trade Investment Promotion Agency (http://english.kotra.or.kr)
KOTRA has long been the face of Korean business to the world, with offices around the world. Established for the purpose of promoting Korean exports, businesspeople wishing to buy products from Korea should start here. The site is constantly updated with the latest products from Korean companies, as well as exhibitions in Korea. KOTRA also sponsors another site at www.buykorea.org, which serves as a global e-trade portal.
6

Incheon International Airport (www.airport.kr/eng)
The first port of all for nearly every visitor to Korea is Incheon International Airport, located on an island about 30km to the west of Incheon. The site is organized with useful information for visitors and an Airport Guide file in PDF format is available for free download. Be sure to print and carry this with you on your trip to Korea.
7 Seoul City Government (english.seoul.go.kr)
This is the city’s main government website for foreigners. Visitors can find information about the latest events in the city, as well as sections on recreation, business and life in Seoul. The moving banner at the bottom of the home page contains links to many of the other websites published by the city, including a collection of live webcams, information about the Seoul Convention and Visitors Bureau, as well as Cheonggyecheon park.
8

Korea Tourism Organization (http://english.visitkorea.or.kr/enu/index.kto )
The slogan of Korea is “Korea Sparkling” and this site explains all the reasons why.  Even if visiting on business, consider taking some extra time to see all the beauty that Korea has to offer. From a day of touring around Seoul and enjoying the local cuisine, to an overnight stay at a Buddhist temple in the mountains, or even a short ocean cruise or ski package, you’ll find that Korea is more than just business!
9

Korea4Expats (www.korea4expats.com/)
Preparing to move to Korea for a couple years? Already living in Seoul? Korea4Expats contains articles and other information for non-Koreans, including a useful directory of business and services in Korea that serve the expatriate community.

10 American Chamber of Commerce in Korea (amchamkorea.org)
For Americans, the American Chamber of Commerce in Korea is the best way to link in quickly to the local expatriate business community. With a full schedule of events, a quarterly journal and various programs to assist US businesses in Korea, AMCHAM is a valuable resource.

More Business Resources for Non-Koreans

Seoul Global Center (global.seoul.go.kr)
This site by the Seoul city government focuses on business in Korea, but also contains links to some great resources, including free downloads of maps of Seoul and the bus and subway systems. With a communications board and other useful information about upcoming events in the city, the site is a worth an online visit. Another city site that may be of interest for its focus on small and medium-sized companies is Small Business Agency at http://sba.seoul.kr/eng.

US Commercial Service (www.buyusa.gov/korea/en)
Long an advocate for US exporters around the world, the US Commercial Service offers services and other trade information through US embassies around the world. The service in Korea is no exception and worth a visit for US companies seeking to export to Korea.
