What works where.
Unlimited high-speed data
There is no total data cap for the validity period. Actual speeds vary with coverage, congestion and your device; a constant speed is not guaranteed.
No number, calls or SMS
This is a data-only eSIM. It issues no phone number and carries no cellular voice or SMS service in either direction.
24-hour periods
Each day is a consecutive 24-hour period counted from activation, not a calendar day.
Apps over data
Internet calling and messaging apps work normally over the data connection.
SMS and verification codes
Can you receive texts on this eSIM?
Not included. This is a data-only eSIM with no SMS service in either direction, so it cannot receive one-time passcodes.
Bank and app verification codes are not guaranteed on any travel eSIM — carriers do not promise short-code delivery. Keep your home SIM available for codes.
Conditions to read before you buy.
No number, calls or SMS
This plan cannot receive one-time passcodes by SMS and cannot place or take ordinary phone calls. Keep your home SIM available if you need those.
Unlimited is not a speed promise
There is no total allowance, but the speed you get depends on coverage, network conditions and your device.
Validity runs in 24-hour blocks
The clock starts at activation, so a plan bought for a single day ends 24 hours later rather than at midnight.
Compatible unlocked phone required
Confirm eSIM support and carrier-unlocked status before purchase.
Install on the final device
The QR code is for a single installation. It cannot be reinstalled or moved to another device.

A good fit when
- You want data that does not run out, from an overnight stop to a three-month stay.

- You need a Korean phone number for bookings, deliveries or verification codes.

- You need to receive bank or service one-time passcodes by SMS.
