Who is Seoulbox?
Founded in 2019, Seoulbox is one of the top snack subscription box companies in Korea. While Seoulbox is known as a snack box, it actually contains K-Beauty products and K-pop merchandise as well as lots and lots of snacks. Two friends, Suji Sohn and Raj Sathi, were living abroad and when Suji tried to introduce Raj to some of her favorite snacks from home. Unfortunately, she just couldn’t find the ones she wanted to show off and so an idea was born.
Now the team has grown into a pretty international group of people looking to promote Korean snacks to the world and they package the goods right in the heart of Seoul in Hongdae.

What you get
You get 15-20 Korean goodies from premium Korean snacks to ramen, candy, drinks, K-pop merch, and K-beauty products. There is also a cultural magazine included that has information about the products, because the packaging is mostly/all in Korean, and cultural information about Korea. Don’t worry if you can’t read Korean yet, they have all of the information provided so you know what you’re getting and they give you insight into why some of the products even exist.
How often can I get Korean snacks?
You can get a box as a one-off, which would make a great gift from Korea for a friend or if you just want to try it out. You can also get the boxes monthly, quarterly, or even annually.

What we got
We love seeing the Seoulbox delivery in our mail. The boxes are awesome. I appreciate that attention to detail and that they’ve created their own design. It’s just fun and the boxes are sturdy so we always end up keeping them and using them for storage. This box got turned into our paint supplies box after we emptied, ate, and enjoyed all of the contents.
We got BTS Hot Brew Macadamia Mocha Latte, Crunky Choco Balls, Mixed Berry Loopy Jellies, White Filling Injeolmi Puff Balls, Kpop Socks, Green Tangerine Pie, Bichobi Chocolate Sandwich Sticks, Rice to Stars Garlic Original, Sour Candies, Yogurt Wafers, Nutty Friends Cake, Shrimp Rice Crackers, Fresh Berry Peach Cake, Seaweed Sesame Seeds Ramen, Cookie Crumble, Rose Foot Mask Pack.
Really something for everyone. My personal favorites were the latte, socks, green tangerine pie, sour candies, yogurt wafers, fresh berry peach cake, and ramen. My husband liked the more savory options, I go for sweet, and my daughter tries them all.
Something I noticed that I don’t remember in our previous boxes from Seoulbox was that they list very clearly under each food item in the booklet now what the allergens and food you’ll want to be aware of are so if you do have a nut allergy or don’t eat pork, for example, even if you can’t read the Korean on the packaging, they’ve listed it now. That’s super helpful. It’s always fun to get mail and getting this in the mail is even better!
