Excuse me, I am quite curious about the matter of Korean VAT. Could you kindly enlighten me on the current rate of VAT in South Korea? I am planning to make a purchase there and would like to understand the taxes involved. Also, are there any specific items or services that are taxed differently? Your assistance in clarifying this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time and attention.
