How to get a South Korea IP address
A South Korea residential proxy routes your traffic through a real South Korea IP address assigned by a local ISP, so websites see an ordinary South Korea visitor instead of a datacenter.

Every plan unlocks South Korea from $1.19/GB with instant activation.
What South Korea residential proxies are used for
KR e-commerce price tracking
Track leading Korean marketplaces and consumer-electronics platforms at scale. Real KR consumer-ISP IPs surface the local-locale catalogue, KRW pricing and shipping options invisible to generic Asia traffic.
Korean SERP & app-rank tracking
Track Korean search engine SERPs and app-store rankings from KR-located IPs. Composition shifts significantly for KR-geo-detected sessions.
Mobile-app store scraping
Korean app stores rank apps differently for KR-located users — and consumer behaviour is heavily mobile-first. Residential routing is the cleanest way to track regional app discovery.
Fashion & beauty catalogue scraping
Korea is a global K-beauty and K-fashion source. Pull catalogues, pricing and inventory from sources that geo-rate-limit foreign traffic.
Is using South Korea residential proxies legal?
Proxy use in South Korea is lawful for commercial workloads such as price intelligence, ad verification and market research. ProxyGen complies with the Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA — 개인정보 보호법); we never resell session data or personal information. The PIPC (Personal Information Protection Commission) is the supervisory authority. Stick to public data and honour destination terms of service.
South Korea Residential proxy FAQ
How many Korean residential IPs are in the pool?
Approximately 530K KR residential IPs at any given moment, with very high concentration in the Seoul Capital Area and meaningful coverage in every metropolitan city. Pool composition refreshes continuously.
Can I target Seoul specifically?
Yes. Add -city-seoul, -city-busan, -city-incheon or any of around 20 named Korean cities to your username for city-locked routing.
Are these IPs from real Korean ISPs?
Yes. Every IP routes through a real consumer connection on a KR-allocated ISP ASN — FTTH and wireless networks. Korea has some of the world's fastest residential broadband.
What is the median latency from the KR residential pool?
Around 30–50ms within Korea, 60–100ms from Japan, 130–170ms from the US west coast and 230–270ms from continental Europe.
Do these work for Korean-locale shopping and SERP scraping?
Yes — and this is one of the strongest use cases for KR residential IPs. SERP composition, marketplace pricing and product rankings shift noticeably for KR-detected sessions.
