Questions about dating in South Korea
Is online dating in South Korea free on YADate?
Yes. YADate is a free online dating site, in South Korea and everywhere else: profiles, search filters, likes, messages, voice messages and gifts cost nothing, and there is no premium plan. The only limits are daily caps against spam, such as 40 new conversations a day.
Are the profiles in South Korea real?
There are no fake profiles here: YADate doesn't create them or chat on anyone's behalf. Photos go live only after a moderator approves them, every account confirms an email address, and reports are reviewed by people. If someone asks for money or rushes you onto another app, report them — a moderator will look into it.
Can I meet people from outside South Korea?
Yes. In the filters you can search around any city in the world, not only in South Korea.
