Can I use this English address as it is?

Yes. 1521 Cheonju-ro, Buk-myeon, Uichang-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do is the official romanisation published by Korea's Ministry of the Interior and Safety, not a transliteration we generated. You can paste it into a shipping form at Amazon, iHerb or AliExpress, or into a visa application, without changing it. Korean addresses run from the smallest unit to the largest in Korean and the other way round in English, and this line is already in the English order.

Where does the postal code go?

Put 51100 in the ZIP or postal code field, and add South Korea as the country. Korean postal codes have been five digits since August 2015; if a form rejects a six-digit code you have an old one. For international mail the full line reads "1521 Cheonju-ro, Buk-myeon, Uichang-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, 51100, South Korea".

Why does Cheonju-ro have more than one postal code?

This building's code is 51100, but Cheonju-ro as a whole is split across 10 of them (51100~51113). Korean postal codes follow delivery zones rather than roads, so a long road crosses several. Always copy the code from the page for your exact building number, not from the road.

What is the lot-number address for?

Buk-myeon, 하천리 157-9 is the same place in the older jibun system, which numbered land parcels instead of buildings. Korea switched to road-name addresses in 2014, but property deeds, land registers and some older records still use the lot number. For post, delivery and official forms, use the road-name address above.

How do I add a floor or unit number?

Write the building address first, then a comma, then the unit. "1521 Cheonju-ro, Buk-myeon, Uichang-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, Unit 502" or "1521 Cheonju-ro, Buk-myeon, Uichang-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, Bldg 101 Unit 1203" are both correct. Korea does not fold the unit into the street line, and delivery works from the building address plus the postal code, so the unit only needs to be readable to the courier at the door.
