Yes. KT, SKT and LG U+ roaming counters at Incheon Airport sell visitor SIM products on arrival, including physical SIM options and supported eSIM activation. Bring your passport for identity registration. The airport lists roaming counters with 24-hour, year-round service, but the exact counter, product inventory and activation support can vary. Subject to on-site change: check the airport service listing and the carrier counter when you arrive.
