Kyobo Bookstore (교보문고) : Register + Purchase ( for International Fans )


(1) The product included in certain screencaps in this tutorial is only an example to further aid understanding, and is not the particular product you may wish to purchase.


(2) This 'tutorial' targets towards Foreigners (outside Korea), as per requested.
As of September 2011, there are now 3 sites that are available to Foreigners (outside Korea) to purchase and support.
They are KYOBO (교보), 신나라 (SYNNARA), YES24 (예스24)


(3) Sales from Kyobo Online Bookstore will/is confirmed to contribute to Hanteo charts and the Discography Sales Association of Korea.


(4) In the following screenshots, if you actually see the site with a different outlook as what you are seeing on your computer, it is because KyoBo already had a site renewal.
Basically, only the look has changed. All the other ways of functioning remain the same.
So long as you follow correctly, you're on the right track.
