What is a LG Uplus proxy?
Every public IP address belongs to a network, and every network has an autonomous system number (ASN). When a website looks up your address it sees the ASN and the organisation behind it. For LG Uplus that is AS17858. A LG Uplus proxy is a proxy whose exit address belongs to that network, so the website sees a LG Uplus address and not a hosting company.
National telecommunications operators run both consumer broadband and business connectivity, so their address space mixes home subscribers, offices and sometimes hosting. The autonomous system number is a good first filter, but not a guarantee of how a single address is used.
Because incumbent operators are old and large, their address blocks are widely recognised by websites and databases. Traffic that appears to come from such a network is usually treated as ordinary consumer or business traffic.
In practice most buyers do not need one particular operator. They need an address that is registered in the right country and looks like consumer or carrier traffic. That is the reason ISP proxies exist: they sit on hardware in a datacenter but use addresses registered to an internet service provider. The distinction matters because some websites treat hosting ranges more strictly than consumer ranges.
LG Uplus ASN numbers
The table lists the main autonomous system numbers we associate with LG Uplus. Large operators announce several ASNs and acquire or reassign them over time, so use the list as a starting point and confirm with a public registry such as RIPEstat, ARIN or bgp.he.net before you depend on a number.
| ASN | Operator | Country | Network type |
|---|---|---|---|
| AS17858 | LG Uplus | South Korea | telecommunications operator |
LG Uplus and South Korea proxy types in stock
To get a South Korea exit you order South Korea IPs. Here is what the South Korea catalog holds today: the proxy types we sell, how many package options each has, the lowest per-IP price and the rental periods on offer. Nothing on this table is estimated, it is read from the same catalog the order form uses.
The cheapest option for South Korea is Datacenter Proxy IPv4 at US$0.70 per IP for 7 days. Longer periods are usually cheaper per day, and most types let you rent a single IP, so you can start with one address and add more later.
You can combine types in the same account. A team might rent Datacenter Proxy IPv4 addresses for fast public-data work and add ISP Proxy where a destination treats ISP-registered or less crowded addresses better.
| Proxy type | Package options | From (per IP) | Rental periods |
|---|---|---|---|
| Datacenter Proxy IPv4 | 13 | US$0.70 | 1 week to 12 months |
| ISP Proxy | 8 | US$3.50 | 1 week to 12 months |
Can I choose LG Uplus exactly?
ProxyOnly sells proxies by country, not by operator. That means you can rent South Korea addresses, including ISP proxies where they are in stock, but we do not promise that an address belongs to LG Uplus in particular. The suppliers behind South Korea stock decide which ranges they hold.
If LG Uplus specifically matters, rent one address first, look up its ASN with a registry or lookup tool, and compare it with AS17858. If you need a guaranteed operator, contact us with your use case and we will tell you honestly whether we can supply it.
Why teams ask for LG Uplus addresses
Searches for LG Uplus proxies come from a handful of recurring needs. None of them require an address from one specific operator, but an address from a network like LG Uplus helps with all of them.
Matching real subscribers. A page that treats datacenter ranges differently from consumer or carrier ranges can only be checked fairly from an address that looks like a telecommunications operator subscriber in South Korea.
Local verification. Ads, prices, search results and app listings are often different for visitors in South Korea. A South Korea address registered to a well-known operator shows what a local customer of LG Uplus sees.
Stable identity. ISP proxies keep the same address for the rental period. That is helpful for tests that need a consistent address over days, such as checking a login flow you own or following a long support case.
Fewer surprises. Addresses from large, long-established operators are widely recognised by websites and databases, so their country and network labels are rarely wrong.
How to check that an address belongs to LG Uplus
Do not trust a label, check the address. After you receive a proxy, run it through the proxy tester on the ProxyOnly home page to see the exit IP and country. Then look the IP up in two different lookup tools and read the organisation and ASN fields.
- Copy the exit IP reported by the proxy tester.
- Look it up in a public ASN or IP lookup tool and note the ASN and organisation.
- Compare the ASN with AS17858 for LG Uplus.
- Check a second lookup tool, because geolocation and organisation data are not identical across databases.
- Repeat with a second address if the first does not match what you need.
What a proxy for South Korea is used for
People look for a South Korea proxy for practical reasons, almost all of them about seeing a public website the way a local visitor sees it. These are the jobs we hear about most.
Brand and reputation monitoring. Brand teams watch how a name appears on public pages in South Korea: local news sites, regional marketplaces, comparison pages and review sites. A South Korea exit makes sure the pages you review are the ones local visitors get, in Korean and English, rather than a version redirected for your own location.
Ad and landing page verification. Ads, offers and landing pages often change by country. With an exit in South Korea a media buyer can see what a visitor in South Korea would see: the language (Korean and English), the price in Won (KRW), the local promotions and the pages that are blocked or redirected for other countries. That is the quickest way to catch a broken geo-targeting rule before it burns budget.
Price and availability monitoring. Retailers, marketplaces and travel sites show different prices to different countries, and the difference is often visible only from a local address. Checking public prices from South Korea lets you compare what shoppers in South Korea are charged in Won (KRW), whether an item ships there, and how delivery promises differ from your home market.
Local search and SEO checks. Search results are personalised by country. To audit rankings for South Korea, load the public results from a South Korea address, compare what appears for .kr domains and local-language queries, and check that hreflang, local business listings and country pages do what they should. A clean address with no logged-in history gives you a fair baseline.
Localization and QA testing. Product teams use a South Korea exit to test what a customer in South Korea actually experiences: the interface language, date and currency formats, the phone format (+82), cookie banners, payment options and any features switched on or off by country. Sticky sessions keep one address while a tester writes up a bug.

A proxy is a networking tool and it is lawful in most places, but what you do with it still has to be lawful and fair. Follow the laws that apply to you and to the place you send traffic to, read the terms of the sites you visit, honour robots rules and rate limits, and never use an address to access accounts or data that are not yours. ProxyOnly cannot give legal advice, and our acceptable use policy applies to every order.
In practice that means reading public pages, checking your own sites and ads, and testing your own products. If a task would be unwelcome to the site owner when done by hand, it is unwelcome when done through a proxy too.

Frequently asked questions
What is the ASN of LG Uplus?
The main autonomous system number we associate with LG Uplus is AS17858. Large operators announce several ASNs and change them over time, so confirm with a public registry before you rely on one.
Do you sell LG Uplus proxies?
We sell South Korea proxies by country and do not guarantee a specific operator. ISP proxies are in stock for this country, so an address registered to a local ISP is likely, but test the ASN before you rely on it.
What is the difference between an ISP proxy and a datacenter proxy?
A datacenter proxy uses an address registered to a hosting company. An ISP proxy runs on datacenter hardware but uses an address registered to an internet service provider, so it looks more like consumer traffic. ISP proxies cost more and suit sites that are strict about hosting ranges.
Can I buy a proxy in South Korea?
Yes, you can rent South Korea proxies from ProxyOnly. We currently list 2 proxy types for South Korea: Datacenter Proxy IPv4, ISP Proxy.
How much does a South Korea proxy cost?
Prices for South Korea start at US$0.70 per IP for 7 days. The final price depends on the type, the number of IPs and the rental period, and longer periods work out cheaper per day. The order page shows the exact total before you pay.
Which proxy type should I use for South Korea?
For most public-data work Datacenter Proxy IPv4 is the practical default. If the site you are testing is strict about hosting ranges, try ISP Proxy instead. Rent one address first and check your success rate before you scale up.
Can I choose a city in South Korea?
We sell by country, so the address is registered in South Korea. Whether it resolves to South Korea depends on how the supplier registered it and on the geolocation database you check, so we do not guarantee a city. Rent one IP, test it, and ask us if you need city-level accuracy.
How do I check that my proxy really shows South Korea?
Use the proxy tester on the ProxyOnly home page: it connects through your proxy and reports the exit IP, the country and the latency. You can also open any public IP lookup page through the proxy and compare the country with KR.
How do I pay and how fast is delivery?
You add funds to your balance in cryptocurrency, starting from one US dollar, and pay for each order from that balance. Orders are delivered to your dashboard with the host, port, username and password. Delivery time depends on the supplier for the type you choose.
