338 Jungang-ro, Seonwon-myeon, Ganghwa-gun, Incheon

삼거리 설렁탕

338 Jungang-ro, Seonwon-myeon, Ganghwa-gun, Incheon (삼거리 설렁탕) is a South Korean address with the postal code 23044. In Korean it is written 인천광역시 강화군 선원면 중앙로 338. Its older lot-number form is 냉정리 545-11, Seonwon-myeon. The village name is left in Korean because our copy of the ministry data does not include its romanised form.

Can I use this English address as it is?

Yes. 338 Jungang-ro, Seonwon-myeon, Ganghwa-gun, Incheon 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 largest unit to the smallest 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 23044 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 "338 Jungang-ro, Seonwon-myeon, Ganghwa-gun, Incheon, 23044, South Korea".

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

This building's code is 23044, but the Seonwon-myeon stretch alone is split across 3 of them (23040, 23041, 23044). Across the whole of Jungang-ro in Ganghwa-gun there are 8. 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?

냉정리 545-11, Seonwon-myeon 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. The village name is shown in Korean because our copy of the ministry data does not include its romanised form; copy it as it is written.

How do I add a floor or unit number?

Put the unit in front of the building address, because English addresses run from the smallest unit to the largest. The official form is "101-dong 1203-ho, 338 Jungang-ro, Seonwon-myeon, Ganghwa-gun, Incheon", or "502-ho, 338 Jungang-ro, Seonwon-myeon, Ganghwa-gun, Incheon" for a building without blocks. If a form has a separate second line, put "101-dong 1203-ho" there instead. Delivery works from the building address and the postal code, so the unit only needs to be readable to the courier at the door.

What is around Seonwon-myeon?

These are public facilities in the same legal district (Seonwon-myeon). They are grouped by district rather than measured by distance, so walking times will vary. Facility names are given in Korean because that is what they are registered under, and what a Korean map app expects: copy the name and paste it into Kakao Map or Naver Map to find the place.
