Korean companies may post comprehensive product information such as product photos, videos, product descriptions, catalogs, certifications, and patent information on the online exhibition hall; and potential buyers may send purchase offers and request video meetings. The Buy Korea platform supports a one-stop transaction process, so if a buyer wants to purchase any product displayed thereon, it can make the payment at the exhibition hall right away and receive the product.
