Is there any service to ship my luggage from seoul to busan?
Hi Eta,
You can use the Express bus delivery service but somebody should receive the luggage when it’s delivered.
Several companies provide end-to-end delivery service using the express bus, KTX, or airplanes but you may need some help from your Korean friend.
Because they only support Korean. If you search ‘고속버스 탁송’ on Naver, you will see several delivery companies use the express bus delivery service.
Hope you find a good way to convey your luggage.
