New to Korean Pokémon cards? This beginner's guide covers everything you need to start collecting — from sets to sealing to shipping.

What are Korean Pokémon cards?

Korean Pokémon cards are official Pokémon Trading Card Game products printed for the South Korean market. They feature the same illustrations and mechanics as other regions, in the Korean language.

Booster boxes, cases, and packs

A Korean booster box contains 30 packs. Buying by the case (30 boxes) is the most cost-effective option for resellers, and sealed product holds its value best.

Popular Korean sets to start with

  • Pokémon 151 — the nostalgic original 151 lineup
  • Shiny Treasure ex — high shiny pull rate
  • Terastal Festival ex — a collector favourite

Buying and shipping

TCG Korea ships sealed Korean Pokémon boxes worldwide via FedEx, EMS, and K-Packet, with payment through Wise. See our FAQ or browse Korean Pokémon products.
