SAVE 49%: Unblock South Korean Netflix with ExpressVPN. A one-year subscription to ExpressVPN is on sale for £82.82 and includes an extra three months for free — 49% off for a limited time. This plan also comes with a money-back guarantee.


South Korean Netflix offers a wide range of popular Korean dramas, alongside 109 Oscar-winning films and the highest number of Emmy-winning titles offered by any of Netflix's global libraries. Those numbers are impressive, so we can understand why so many subscribers are trying to access this stacked library.

Fortunately, there is a simple process you can follow to unblock South Korean Netflix from anywhere in the world.

How to unblock South Korean Netflix

You will be blocked if you try to access South Korean Netflix from outside the country. The only way to bypass this blockade is with a streaming-friendly VPN.

These popular cybersecurity services can hide your real IP address and connect you to a server in South Korea. This quick and easy process tricks Netflix into thinking you're connecting from the country, meaning you get to watch all the content that is normally locked to the location. You can secure access to South Korean Netflix in just a few clicks:

  1. Sign up for a streaming-friendly VPN

  2. Download the app to your device of choice (the best VPNs have apps for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Linux, and more)

  3. Open up the app and connect to a server in South Korea

  4. Sign in to Netflix

  5. Watch your favourite shows and movies from the South Korean Netflix library

There are plenty of services that can reliably unblock South Korean Netflix, but ExpressVPN is tough to beat when it comes to reliability and connection speed. This high-speed service offers powerful levels of encryption, helpful live support, and five simultaneous connections. ExpressVPN also has a robust privacy policy, so your data is always secure when streaming.

Can you watch South Korean Netflix for free?

ExpressVPN is not free, but it does offer a generous money-back guarantee.

A one-year subscription to ExpressVPN is on sale for £82.82 with an extra three months of coverage for free, saving you 49% on list price. This discounted plan includes a year of free Backblaze cloud backup and a 30-day money-back guarantee.
