• ₩330,000 is ~$240, and the tax refund claws back another ₩15,000-20,000 — total saving vs US around $100 a pair
• Popular black frames sell out at Incheon duty free; buy in the city and claim the refund at the airport kiosk instead
• It's a domestic brand, so Korea gets new drops and collab lines months before overseas boutiques
