1. Juul

Arguably the most iconic and classic vape brands of all times. Juul was a pioneer in the vape industry, to the point that the term “juuling” is the synonymous with using e-cigarettes. Being around for 10 years in the industry, even though Juul is not as popular as in once were, today, Juul still remain popular for people who are looking for something simple and discreet. Its design feels high-end and polished, enhancing its appeal for those who are looking for a premium minimalist vape — much like an appeal of iPhone.

In Korea, due to regulatory restrictions on nicotine products, JUUL’s availability and flavors may vary, and its use is subject to local laws. However, it remains one of the most recognizable international brands in Korea’s vaping scene.
