Foreign nationals are not required to undergo a verification process.
-
If you are a foreign national, you can access adult content by enabling the "Foreigners' Adult Content Access" function in the [설정(Settings)] > [계정(Account)] section.
-
By enabling this function, you confirm that you are 18 years of age or older and legally permitted to view adult content in your country of residence. Please note that even with this function enabled, certain posts may still be restricted.
If you are unable to locate the "외국인의 성인물 열람(Foreigners' Adult Content Access)" option, it is possible that you are being recognized as a Korean due to various reasons:
- Your device's OS/browser setting being in Korean.
- Using email services for Korean users such as Naver or Daum.
- Having an IP address that indicates you are located in Korea.
- Being recognized as a Korean by another account.
Foreign nationals who are recognized as Koreans can only verify their age using a passport.
-
If your passport verifies that you are over 18 years old, you will be able to access adult content.
-
Please note that other forms of identification, such as a national ID card or driver's license, are not accepted for verification purposes.
-
Only one account per person can be verified using a passport, and the verification is valid for one year from the date of confirmation.
-
The verification process may take two to three business days to complete. Once the verification is approved or rejected, an email will be sent to the email address associated with your account.
-
If your verification is rejected, the submitted information will be deleted immediately to protect your personal information, and we will not be able to provide you with the exact reason for the rejection.
To submit your passport for verification, please follow these steps:
- If you have not confirmed your email, complete your email confirmation by clicking [설정(Settings)] > [계정(Account)] > [이메일 인증(Email Verification)].

- Click [본인 인증하기(Verify Identity)] > [신분증 인증(해외 이용자 전용) (Identification Verification (for overseas users only))]. This link can only be accessed from abroad.
- Fill out the form with your correct information and upload a copy of your international passport.
- If your name does not have a specific surname, please fill in a hyphen (-) in the "Surname" field and fill in your full name in the "Given Name" field.
- If you have a middle name, please include it in the "Given Name" field.
Your age verification may be rejected for the following reasons:
- If all personal information, except for the photo, surname, given name, nationality, sex, date of birth, and date of expiry of passport, is not redacted.
- If the information entered does not exactly match what is written on your passport. (especially nationality, middle name, and name including spaces or hyphens)
- If you do not select the exact country name that matches your nationality.
- If you attach other forms of identification that are not valid for international air travel, such as passport cards, national ID cards, driver's licenses, and student IDs.
- If personal information is not clear due to blurring or reflection of light.
- If your passport has been compromised or has expired; or if your passport seems to have been forged or stolen.
