Can I bring commercially packaged beef jerky to Korea? The ones here taste like garbage.

I searched the forum but found mix results.

Thanks

Im not sure. The say you cannot bring meat products, but I believe they refer to uncooked meat, not canned or dried. I always bring Oh Boy Oberto jerky and haven't been caught or ask about it, but I see no problem since they sell the exact same product at Costco for more than double the price

This is one of those "don't ask for permission, offer apologies if necessary" situations Koreans have taught me about during my time here.
