| Korea vs export | Confirmed minor discrepancy, source-verified but of uncertain cause. Comparing the declared ingredients on the Korea Olive Young listing against the brand's own US site (cosrx.com) on 2026-08-27: the KR list has 23 ingredients in an order matching the US list, but the US list has one additional ingredient — Sodium Chloride, positioned 4th — that does not appear anywhere in the KR list. Everything else in both lists is identical in content and order. This could reflect an actual minor formula difference (e.g., a viscosity-control salt added for the US market) or a listing that is slightly out of date; the discrepancy is reported as observed, not with an asserted cause. |

Is the Korean version of COSRX's Low pH Good Morning Gel Cleanser different from the US version?

All other ingredients match. Whether this is an active formula difference or a listing update lag is not confirmed.

Does it contain petrolatum?
No — Petrolatum does not appear in either the Korea or US ingredient list.
Is it cheaper in Korea?
Yes, at list price — 9,900 KRW (roughly on par with, or below, USD $14.00 list once converted) in Korea vs $14.00 list / $11.20 sale on the brand's own US site, for the same 150ml size.
