For Korea, the default postal mailing format is constructed from the following address elements:
[Level1] [Level2] [Level3] [Block#] - [Sub-block#] [Level4] [Apt. Bldg.#] - [House#] [Floor]
The default Mailing Address Line Rules are specified as follows:
|
Setting |
OutputAttribute |
Default Format |
|---|---|---|
|
|
pr_addr_mail |
<pr_addr_mail1><pr_addr_mail2> or <pr_addr_mail1><pr_addr_mail3> Note: This format is used when the street formatted address option is
enabled.
|
|
MAIL1 |
pr_addr_mail1 |
<pr_level1> <pr_level2> <pr_level3> <pr_road> {<pr_block_number>-<pr_sub_block_number>BUNJI} |
|
MAIL2 |
pr_addr_mail2 |
<pr_level4> <pr_building_name> {<pr_apartment_number>-<pr_house_number>_HO} {<pr_floor_number>F} |
|
USE_STREET_FORMATTED_ADDRESS |
pr_addr_mail3 |
<pr_map_street_name> <pr_map_building_name> {<pr_apartment_number>-<pr_house_number>_HO} {<pr_floor_number>F} |
Example 1:
서울 서초구 서초동 1359-45 서일빌딩 403 |
|
|---|---|
Level 1 |
서울 |
Level 2 |
서초구 |
Level 3 |
서초동 |
Block # |
1359 |
Sub-Block # |
45 |
Level 4 |
서일빌딩 |
House # |
403 |
Example 2:
서울 용산구 이촌2동 현대한강아파트 7-1103 |
|
|---|---|
Level 1 |
서울 |
Level 2 |
용산구 |
Level 3 |
이촌2동 |
Level 4 |
현대한강아파트 |
Apt. Bldg. # |
7 |
House # |
1103 |
The pr_addr_mail can be written out in two separate lines, pr_addr_mail1 and pr_addr_mail2 for neatness purposes. However, unlike the addressing system of the United States, there are no explicit rules or regulations in the Korean addressing system to dictate how an address needs to be separated into multiple lines. The pr_addr_mail is split up in the following manner:
pr_addr_mail1: [Level 1] [Level2] [Level3] [Block #] - [Sub-Block #]
pr_addr_mail2: [Level4] [Apt. Bldg. #] - [House #] [Floor]
During the Postal Matcher processing, the pr_addr_mail attribute, pr_addr_mail1, and pr_addr_mail2 attributes are written out simultaneously and may be selected simply by specifying the desired attribute(s) in the output schema.
Example 1a:
Taking Example 1 above,
pr_addr_mail: 서울 서초구 서초동 1359-45 서일빌딩 403
the split-up mail attributes will be as follows:
pr_addr_mail1: 서울 서초구 서초동 1359-45
pr_addr_mail2: 서일빌딩 403
Example 2a:
Taking Example 2 above,
pr_addr_mail: 서울 용산구 이촌2동 현대한강아파트 7-1103
the split-up mail attributes will be as follows:
pr_addr_mail1: 서울 용산구 이촌2동
pr_addr_mail2: 현대한강아파트 7-1103
