YES 24

YES24 is Korea's No. 1 internet bookstore with 20 million users. It provides the best book information, the largest amount of books available through the largest distribution center in Korea, and fast delivery.


When K-pop artists collaborate with magazines, YES24 is often the official purchase link to buy the items. So go and check their magazine section and search for the latest releases featuring famous Korean celebrities.

YES24 sells many on-trend script books such as Decision to Leave, The Handmaiden, Thirst by director Chan Wook Park, and Extraordinary Attorney Woo. Many famous script books were sold out soon after their release, so please let us know if your order includes any popular goods and we’ll try to get it as soon as possible.

The bookstore has an English website, which makes it easier to navigate for foreign customers. If you have any questions about specific items sold only on the Korean website, feel free to contact us, and we will find the one you are looking for.

Please note that we do not offer ticket purchasing service, including tickets on yes24.

Aladin

When Aladdin makes a wish, Genie comes out of the lamp and makes a dream come true. The brand 'Aladin' contains the entrepreneurial spirit to make customers' dreams come true.

Aladin often holds gift presentation events. Many goods, such as key rings with certain books' designs, attract many fans.

Aladin is best known for its second-hand book/CD selling service. Getting out of the image of outdated used bookstores effectively appealed to young people in Korea. We, KoreanBuddies, provide second-hand item purchase service only to our members. However, as vendors in Aladin receive credit cards, we can help you with cheap second-hand items even if you are not our member! Please note that the quality of the second-hand items is not guaranteed, though.
