19 Daun 16-gil, Jung-gu, Ulsan

19 Daun 16-gil, Jung-gu, Ulsan is a South Korean address with the postal code 44409. In Korean it is written 울산광역시 중구 다운16길 19. Its older lot-number form is Daun-dong, 786-3.

Can I use this English address as it is?

Yes. 19 Daun 16-gil, Jung-gu, Ulsan 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 44409 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 "19 Daun 16-gil, Jung-gu, Ulsan, 44409, South Korea".

Does the whole of Daun 16-gil share this postal code?

Yes. Every building on Daun 16-gil uses 44409. The road sits inside a single delivery zone, so the building number does not change the code. That is not true of longer roads, where the code changes partway along.

What is the lot-number address for?

Daun-dong, 786-3 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?

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, 19 Daun 16-gil, Jung-gu, Ulsan", or "502-ho, 19 Daun 16-gil, Jung-gu, Ulsan" 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 Daun-dong?

These are public facilities in the same legal district (Daun-dong). 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.
