I ordered an item from this website that they did not deliver. I tried multiple times to contact them for an update, and was thoroughly ignored.

Great box
Im happy with the service and the handcrafted boxes . However due to the covid19 situation its been over a month and i still have received my box 😫
Good
I made my purchase more than a month ago and I still haven’t received it, but I understand things are difficult now due to the COVID-19 situation. The problem is: I cannot track my package because there isn’t a tracking number.
Arrived
Update: Package received! Took 31 business days to arrive. My friend has been studying the Korean language so liked the reading and writing material. However, the flashcards English translation on the back was incorrect, seems like a printing error. Food included was nice. Asked her opinion' better as a one time box rather than a repeated subscription. Would be better if they had levels of novice, enthusiasts, and fanatics for level of boxes to match persons level of interest.

Inspire Me Korea is truly an awesome subscription. You get so many cool things that I probably wouldn't be able to get. Brings a smile to my face.
It's FINE
It's fine. Don't expect to be wowed or find this box a bargain or even close to the worth you paid for the box, it's just paper and card in different forms, if you want a k box that is actually worth the money you pay try seoulbox or daebak box.

Best subscription service around!!
Their customer service is amazing and super helpful! I am never disappointed in the items I've received and I love how, even on social media, they interact with customers/fans.
Great
Great, authentic products. The guest service is timely, friendly and professional.

The site itself is well organized and airy. You can easily browse the site while finding the necessary information.The products we can find are well informed. There are boxes as individual items. If you need more information can be contacted by email.
Would recommend!
Liked the content of the box but a few of the items were missing. That being said the staff was very helpful and answered right away! Also the box was shipped the day after I ordered it and arrived very quickly as well!
I never received the box after two…
I never received the box after two months, but I'm still holding out hope that it's because of COVID 19.

Great idea in general
Great idea in general, good products, great customer service - only shipping is a bit slow to Germany (not your fault, though) & would love some more snacks and fewer posters :) keep up the great work!
I got another Jungkook picture
I got another Jungkook picture. Everything they sent me is amazing and I got another picture of Jungkook which makes me really happy
Way to expensive for the real thing
The worst present you can ever give...
Way to expensive for what they offer and also nothing to do with what you are expecting.
I was expecting a really nice box with full things about BTS (40€ for the mini box) and received only 3 things about BTS...
If you save to money you spend for this box next year you can go to Korea and buy all you want PLUS better quality.

I honestly loved the box in itself
I honestly loved the box in itself, this box can definitely help get through quarantine and the price point is a decent one for what comes to you in the mail. I would definitely recommend ☺️💜
Amazing boxes which are full of…
Amazing boxes which are full of interesting and useful information about South Korea, lots of cute Korean things and tasty snacks :)
So cool to explore South Korea just from home! Inspires me a lot! ♡
Problems with the tracking number.
I love the box and the varieties of things that I received each month. I also like that each month is a different theme. However, the only problem that I have is the tracking number. Although I have received a tracking number for each box, there is no information on the tracking of the box. Therefore, I do not know when the box would be delivered and where the box is after it has been shipped.
I love the box!! Saranghae <3
I love the box, the variety of the goodies! The magazine is packed full of language info which I love. However, it would be nice to choose the posters, or postcards of bands/groups. Maybe be able to opt for only Monsta X, or only BTS or a combination?
Just a thought, customizing might be too tricky!
So So
I signed up for the subscription due to a certain offer they had regarding a idol box. I saw it as an advertisement either through Facebook or Instagram. With the current worldly situation with the COVID I get that and I expected to experience long wait times etc. Before I even received my first box, I noticed I already got charged for my second box. I was fine with that since the timing was off ao I don’t have an issue with that part. I decided to stop the subscription since by this time, there are 2 boxes I’m waiting on at this point. Last week, I received my first box which I thought was off and was not the correct box I was suppose to get. I did sign up for the subscription and cancelled after the second item was charged, so in my head I was thinking that the second box arrived before the initial box. A few days later, I decided to get ahold of their customer service, sent a message on a Thursday, and got a reply on a Monday PST - not too bad. They did a research and they said that there were a mixup with my order, but unfortunately they are willing to send me the May box as an alternative. I’m not okay with that because 1.I ordered a specific box for a reason, so getting anything but what I ordered is just unacceptable. I wouldn’t have signed up in the first place had I known. 2. I asked for a refund since there was a mistake, which they gave me $29.99 back. It mY sound good but in my opinion I have paid for 2 unwanted boxes and got refunded for 1. So I seem to be in the losing end. Also I’m still waiting for the second box
