How to read the scores: Online, Market and Export are separate evidence pillars. A missing pillar is shown as N/A and reduces evidence coverage; it is never converted into a fake zero. Korean domestic sales or Naver popularity never count as export performance.

Safety note: This is a comparative discovery index, not a diagnosis or medical recommendation. Product suitability still depends on ingredients, allergies and individual skin response.

Ranking logic

Attention starts the ranking. Export evidence strengthens it.

Five independent pillars separate public attention from overseas market traction and official export proof. Category-level Korean export totals provide context only and never become a brand score.

Full methodology →
25%

Overseas market traction

Comparable overseas retail ranks, distribution footprint and verified review momentum. Korean domestic-only evidence is excluded.

20%

Official export evidence

Korea Customs, K-stat, KOTRA, association reports and company disclosures only when the brand or product is directly named.

10%

Professional & quality

Regulatory records, testing, recognized professional research and documented international awards.

5%

Freshness & reliability

Recent primary sources and agreement across independent evidence owners receive higher confidence.

Online layer active

Three no-key public feeds

Checking source registry…
Official evidence gate

No domestic-to-export substitution

K-stat, Korea Customs, KOTRA and association material enter a brand score only when the source directly identifies the brand or product. Industry totals remain market context.

Independence rule

Rankings cannot be bought.

No affiliate commissions or paid ranking positions. A source must be public, comparable, dated and geographically relevant before it affects the index.
