South Korea: Philately Information

Postcards & Mail Mail, stamps & postal info
1

Hello! I’m going there on a trip and would like to purchase some maxicards, stamps and some other philatelic stuff so I would like to ask some questions!

  1. Where can we buy philatelic items offline? I know there is the Korea Postage and Stamps Museum, but wanted to check if there are any others (Busan/Seoul) :slight_smile:
  2. What can we buy there? How many issues do they keep at the store? (within the same year?)
  3. Can we stamp and make our own maxicards, and do they only keep the latest issue’s postmark available for stamping? This is because Singapore only keeps the latest issue’s postmark available for stamping, so I wanted to make sure!

Thank you :slight_smile:
