Collection: South Korea eSIM

South Korea has raced up the Australian travel wish list — Seoul for palaces, street food and shopping, Busan for beaches and markets, Jeju for hiking, and the Pyeongchang slopes once winter arrives. Travel in the September school holidays and you'll catch summer easing into autumn; go December to February and you've timed the ski season. Korea also runs on its own apps: Google Maps is limited there, so you'll lean on Naver Map and KakaoMap for subway routes, directions and taxis — all needing data the moment you land. A prepaid South Korea eSIM, from $9.50 AUD, sorts that before you leave home.

Why an eSIM for South Korea

• Sorted before you fly — your QR code arrives by email minutes after ordering; scan it at home and data activates on landing at Incheon.
• Keep your Australian number — dual SIM keeps your normal SIM active alongside, so calls and texts still reach you.
• Prepaid, with top-ups — pay upfront, no bill shock, and add data mid-trip if Seoul keeps you longer.
• Stay in control — the ESIMStore app (iPhone and Android) shows live data usage, backed by Australian-based support.

How it works

Pick from our two South Korea plans and check out. Your QR code lands in your inbox straight away — scan it before you fly. On landing, data switches on via 4G/5G on partner networks where available. New to eSIMs? See how it works.

FAQs

Will my iPhone work with an eSIM in South Korea?

Yes — every iPhone sold in Australia from the XS onwards supports eSIM, and most recent Android phones do too. Just check your phone is unlocked; if you bought it outright, you're good to go — scan the QR code at home and you'll be on Naver Map before you're out of arrivals at Incheon.

Can I keep my Australian number while I'm in South Korea?

Yes — your Australian SIM stays active alongside the eSIM, so calls and bank SMS codes still reach your usual number. Just switch data roaming off on your Australian SIM so the eSIM handles all the browsing.

What happens if I run out of data in South Korea?

Top-ups are available — no hunting for a SIM kiosk in Myeongdong. The ESIMStore app shows your live usage so you'll see it coming, and prepaid means no surprise bills.
