Sulwhasoo Men Bonyun Sun Cream SPF50+ PA++++
Sulwhasoo's Men Bonyun Sun Cream (본윤선크림), part of the "Sulwhasoo Men" sub-line, sells for ₩40,000 (50ml), 10% off to ₩36,000 on Olive Young Korea and matching exactly on Amorepacific's own official mall (amoremall.com), checked 2026-09-04. Sulwhasoo's own official international site sells what appears to be the identical product under the global name "UV Defense Protector" — same SPF50+/PA++++ rating and a closely matching ingredient list (Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate, Terephthalylidene Dicamphor Sulfonic Acid). A separately-named, differently-formulated product, "Men Relaxing UV Protector SPF50+ PA+++" (using Titanium Dioxide instead of some organic filters), also turns up in third-party archives but appears to be an older, discontinued SKU rather than the current export version — not conflated with the current formula here.

Is the Korean version of this sunscreen different from the export version?
No known difference — Sulwhasoo's own official international site (int.sulwhasoo.com) sells the identical product under the global name "UV Defense Protector," at the same SPF50+/PA++++ rating, with an ingredient list matching what's documented for the Korean 본윤선크림 (both built around Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Ethylhexyl Salicylate, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate and Terephthalylidene Dicamphor Sulfonic Acid as UV filters), checked 2026-09-04. Note: a differently-formulated product also circulates under the name "Men Relaxing UV Protector SPF50+ PA+++" in third-party retail archives, but it appears to be an older, discontinued SKU, not today's export version.
Is it a functional cosmetic, and does it claim brightening or anti-aging effects?
Amorepacific's own official product page lists it as a UV-protection functional cosmetic (자외선차단) only. Sulwhasoo's international site separately markets it with "Anti-oxidation, Anti-aging, Brightening" benefit language, but only UV protection is confirmed as the registered functional-cosmetic type — the other terms read as marketing claims, not confirmed MFDS registrations, checked 2026-09-04.
