Matin Kim Dosan Store

Why it's hot
One of the K-fashion labels most searched by Japanese, Chinese and Taiwanese visitors; the Dosan store reported that about 70% of its customers are from overseas.
Matin Kim is one of the Korean labels many visitors put on their Seoul shopping lists, with best sellers that include logo tees, coated jackets, accordion wallets, caps, beanies and bags in a relaxed, easy-to-wear style. The Dosan store opened in September 2024 in a clean white two-story building on a quiet street behind Dosan Park. Inside, raw concrete and black-and-white contrasts keep the focus on the clothes. The ground floor carries the seasonal collection, signature accessories and the men's line, and a narrow staircase leads up to the second floor, which is dedicated to Kim Matin, the brand's higher-end line, with large windows looking out over the neighborhood. According to a 2025 trade report, the store sees roughly 200 to 300 visitors a day, and most of them are tourists, so weekdays can be as busy as weekends. Other fashion stores have opened along the same block, which makes it an easy stop on a Dosan shopping walk.
Tips for visitors tip!
- Head upstairs for the Kim Matin line, which the store says sells especially well here.
- Tourist groups come throughout the week, so arrive close to the 11:00 opening for easier fitting-room access.
- Bring your passport and ask staff about tax refund options at checkout.
- Fashion stores such as Mardi Mercredi are right across the street, so plan a short shopping loop around Dosan Park.
