It's Suah's first visit to Korea, where her grandma lives. She was so excited, but her broken Korean blocked the communication between her and Grandma. She thought that she and Grandma didn't have much in common. But as they spent time together, she discovered something different. Do you want to hear their story?
Grandma Lives in Korea captures the unique experiences of a young child visiting her grandmother in Korea, navigating the intriguing differences and unexpected similarities between their worlds.
Join Suah as she steps into a land where every sight, sound, and smell feels new and exciting. From savoring the delicious taste of Korean dumplings to marveling at the breathtaking night view from Namsan Tower, each moment is a blend of wonder, nervousness, delight, and discovery. Suah's journey is filled with charming anecdotes-like learning to write 'cherry blossom' in Korean and enjoying a cozy afternoon at a jjimjilbang with her grandmother.
Through these vivid experiences, Suah realizes that despite the language barriers and cultural differences, she and her grandmother share many beautiful similarities. This book is more than just a travel tale; it's a touching narrative highlighting the bond between generations and the joy of embracing new experiences.

All of our products are shipped from Korea to the rest of the world, so a global shipping fee applies to every order. Shipping costs and delivery times vary depending on your country.
To see exactly how much shipping costs and how long it takes to reach your country, just click Calculate and see the shipping cost below the Add to Cart button.
Q. When will my subscription box ship?
Our subscription and curated boxes (Daebak Box, Daebak K-Beauty Box, SnackFever, and Collab Box) ship right after a 2–3 business day processing period from the time your order is placed.
Q. How do recurring subscriptions work?
For recurring subscriptions, your next order is automatically created exactly 3 months after your original order date. Once that order is generated, it ships after the same 2–3 business day processing period.
Q. ⚠️ Important: Can I order products from different brands together?
Please order items from the same brand together, and avoid mixing different brands in a single order.
Each Korean brand we carry uses its own shipping carrier, so combining products from different brands in one order may result in higher shipping costs. For example, Brand A may ship via FedEx while Brand B ships via Korea Post, meaning a mixed order is handled as separate shipments.
To keep your shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing a separate order for each brand.
