MARKET OVERVIEW
The South Korea wine market was valued at 726.40 million liters in 2022 and is expected to reach 814.27 million liters by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 1.08% during the forecast period, 2023-2030.
Wine is an alcoholic beverage produced via fermentation using fruits, cherries, rice, berries, pomegranate, grapes, etc. The terroir, grape types utilized, weather fluctuations, and winemaking methods are some of the variables that affect a wine variety’s distinctive qualities. Wine consumption has several positive health effects, as well, including increased bone density, decreased cholesterol, a decreased chance of heart disease, and others.
Rice wine is the most popular type of wine in South Korea. However, industry figures show barely 13% of all alcoholic beverage sales in South Korea are wine. The country is mostly a beer and spirit market.

In South Korea, wine is primarily consumed at home (about 80%), either with meals or as a treat at the end of the day. It is viewed as a drink to savor while sipping. Many South Koreans adopted wine as a household beverage throughout the pandemic.
In actuality, food compatibility still ranks as the top motivator for purchases. Younger South Koreans who are health-conscious and view wine as more sophisticated are particularly drawn to its more moderate consumption occasions. The nation is regarded as among the most accepting globally of organic wines, ranking fourth after China, Sweden, and Germany.
One of the key growth drivers of the South Korea wine market is the increasing imports of wine. Although many people consider wine to be luxurious, it is also more reasonably priced than many of the spirits that are used for business or work-related drinking.Â
Similarly, cheap wines are becoming increasingly prevalent in the South Korean market and wine imports have risen rapidly. Besides, the South Korean wine industry has been a bright spot for exporters when the market is moving in favor of indigenous producers. For instance, 2021 saw a sharp increase in Canadian wine exports to South Korea. Overall, the South Korean wine market is developing and has room to expand.Â
However, the South Korean wine business is struggling due to strict laws governing wine sales. South Korea has strong laws governing the selling of alcoholic beverages, and online sales are not allowed.Â
In addition, alcoholic beverage orders and payments are accepted through websites and applications, but customers must pick up their orders in person from shops or a designated collection location. Moreover, the retail price of imported wines in South Korea is many times higher due to the combined effects of import duty, municipal spirits taxes, shipping costs, and distributor markups, which restrains the industry’s expansion.
