Live Commerce — Korean Platforms
Channels for selling through real-time live streaming.
Live commerce in Korea is mostly embedded inside platforms merchants already use — Naver, Kakao, and Coupang each run their own live shopping surfaces — rather than existing as standalone apps, with Grip as a notable creator-led exception. Sessions are host-driven and conducted in Korean, so for a foreign business the practical question is less which platform to pick than whether you have a Korean-speaking host or agency who can demonstrate the product in real time.
