You'd be surprised, there are many sites that don't even support names longer than some arbitrary limit like 5 or 10 characters because Korean names are typically 3 to 4 characters long.

The phone number is typically required for real-name verification. Pair that with the low character limit above and a lot of stuff just breaks.

I think non-Korean customers just are not much of a consideration for Korean companies unfortunately.
