Frequently asked questions
What is an eSIM and how does it work in South Korea?
An eSIM (embedded SIM) is a digital SIM that allows you to activate a cellular plan without needing a physical SIM card. In South Korea, eSIMs can be used with compatible devices to access mobile networks, enabling you to stay connected without the hassle of swapping physical SIM cards.
How do I activate my eSIM in South Korea?
To activate your eSIM, you will typically need to scan a QR code provided by your eSIM provider, such as Pelago. This can usually be done through your device's settings under the cellular or mobile data section. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the activation process.
Can I use my eSIM with multiple devices?
Generally, an eSIM can only be active on one device at a time. If you want to use the same eSIM on a different device, you may need to deactivate it on the current device first and then activate it on the new one. Always check with your eSIM provider for specific policies.
What should I do if I encounter issues with my eSIM?
If you experience issues with your eSIM, first try restarting your device. If the problem persists, check your device settings to ensure the eSIM is properly activated. You can also contact Pelago's customer support for assistance with troubleshooting.
Is my personal data secure when using an eSIM?
Yes, using an eSIM is generally secure. eSIM technology includes encryption and security features that protect your personal data. However, it's always important to follow best practices for data security, such as using strong passwords and being cautious with public Wi-Fi.
Which option should I select at checkout when I am asked "Who will this device be used for?"
Select "For myself" only if you are installing the eSIM on your device. Otherwise, please select "For Someone Else" at checkout to avoid issues with eSIM installation.

I think my friends and I lucked out with our tour! Our guide Yujin was so informative from pick up to the end of the tour. Yujin was so thoughtful and considerate when he noticed that the group was exhausted; during the trip back to Seoul, he got us back to our accommodation as soon as he can. My friends and I 100% recommend the tour and especially our guide!
Easy to use and convenient! Good buy!
Works great. Easy to install, operate and track usage
Easy to use it, just need to monitor the data usage due to just 3GB for 7days.
Except for one thing, it should be given more options for the number of day to select. Given that if we needed just 8, 9 or 10 days options!
