Most of the sites that offer buy and download games online country restrict the IP. Before i try to use a proxy i was wondering if there's any sites you know of that allow from S. Korea. I've already tried Direct2Drive. It allows you to register and input credit card information and even saves it but won't let you complete the check out.

What are you trying to DL exactly? I bought the latest fallout off steam with no problems.

Steam

Also, if you don't like the platform you could download an iso of the game then pick up a cd-key from allcdkeys or a site like it

my steam is set up as a Canadian account since I opened it here and use a Canadian CC. But I've bought from korea on gamersgate without issue. Using my Canadian CC.
I've also bought on Direct2drive.. I think.. hmm. I'd have to check honestly, but I think I did. You can also buy from greenman gaming and if you want some older games, good old games is probably also okay.
impulse (stardock) I think works as well

I buy from steam all the time with my canadian CC. I've been doing it for about 2.5 years. Initially there was a security issue. Steam automatically blocks any purchases when your payment method and location region don't match.

You can contact them and request an unlock for 1 purchase. I did that off and on for about a year then out of the blue I checked the "save purchase information" for the account and I've never had to request an unlock since. I can buy anything off steam any time.
