- Some CU/GS25 branches now run immediate tax refund — but only on a single receipt over ₩15,000, so consolidate the haul
- H-Mart and Indian/US import stores mark these snacks up 2-3x; almond flavors (wasabi, tteokbokki) are Korea-first releases
- Meat-containing ramyun/jerky is confiscated at US and Australian borders — stick to seafood/vegetarian flavors and declare food
- Lotte Mart Seoul Station has a dedicated tax-refund counter and is built for exactly this final-day haul
