How Global Beauty Brands Can Grow in Korea

Thursday • May 21, 2026 • 11:00 AM ET • 45 minutes

Why Korea deserves a closer look

Some brands dismiss Korea as too small. Others assume K-beauty leaves little room for outside brands. Both views can miss the bigger commercial picture.

Korea influences beauty trends far beyond its size, moves quickly, and remains a valuable market for brands that want relevance in Asia. With the right offer and the right route to market, global brands can still grow there.

Join WPIC and Coupang for a practical session on where the opportunity sits now and how brands can act on it.

In this session, we will examine:

  • Where global beauty brands still have room to grow in Korea
  • What shoppers in Korea respond to today
  • How to compete without copying local brands
  • Why e-commerce matters in market growth
  • How Coupang can help brands scale faster
  • Common mistakes that slow progress in Korea
