5 products compared · Korean data as of Olive Young Korea 13 Oct 2026 · Olive Young Korea 14 Oct 2026 · Olive Young Korea 1 Oct 2026 · Hwahae 14 Oct 2026
If you want the beauty device Koreans are buying now, start with medicube's Booster Pro X2: on 13 Oct 2026 it was the only device in Olive Young Korea's skincare Top 100, at #45. For a smaller medicube wand, the Mini Booster Pro Plus was #3 in the store's device sales list on 14 Oct 2026.
No device held a Top 100 place on all three dates, so the order leans on one or two rankings each; we did not test any device, and nothing here is a promise about results.

How we picked
Pool: every device in Olive Young Korea's skincare-device category that reached the skincare sales ranking Top 100 on 6 Sep, 1 Oct or 13 Oct 2026 (five devices), checked against the category's sales list of 14 Oct 2026.
Hair tools, cleansing brushes and digital accessories are other Olive Young categories and are not in the pool. Devices that sell in the category but never reached the Top 100 on those dates are not in it either.
Order: how many of the three Olive Young Korea skincare rankings each device appears in, then its median rank (missing = 101), then its place in the skincare-device sales list on 14 Oct (only the first 13 places of that list are in sales order). Price and commission play no part.
3 of the 5 products with an Olive Young Korea rank reached it through a promotional listing (influencer pick, Olive Young pick, collab or sale).
Ranked products that came from a gift-set or bonus listing (an extra item or a second unit in the pack): 4 of 5 — a rank can partly reflect the deal.
We have not tried these on skin, so the picks lean only on the Korean data shown here.
For most readers, medicube's Booster Pro X2 is the pick.
It was the only device in Olive Young Korea's skincare Top 100 on 13 Oct 2026, at #45 as a character set, and #5 in the store's device sales list on 14 Oct. It charges over USB-C, and the brand sells it on Amazon US.
Which beauty device do Koreans buy most at Olive Young right now?
medicube's Booster Pro X2. On 13 Oct 2026 it was the only device in Olive Young Korea's skincare Top 100, at #45 as a character gift set. Olive Young does not publish how it ranks, so our order uses three dates plus the device sales list of 14 Oct 2026.
Do Koreans buy LED face masks at Olive Young?
Not from the shelf we read. Olive Young Korea's skincare-device category listed 41 devices on 14 Oct 2026, and none was an LED face mask. The five devices here are handheld wands, rollers or capsule-shaped boosters.
Will a Korean beauty device work in the US?
Check how it charges. The Korean listing for the Booster Pro X2 rates its charging at DC 5 V / 2 A over USB-C, and medicube's US store puts a USB charging cable in the box. For the Mini Booster Pro Plus, medicube's US listing says no cable or charger is included.
Is the medicube Booster Pro X2 worth it, or should I get the Mini Booster Pro Plus?
The Booster Pro X2 if you want the device Korea ranked most recently: #45 in Olive Young Korea's skincare ranking on 13 Oct 2026. The Mini Booster Pro Plus has far more reviews, 4.8 from 2,491 on Olive Young Korea, weighs 75 g and arrives without a charger in the US.
Does the warranty cover a beauty device bought in Seoul?
The free service is tied to units sold in Korea. Olive Young Korea's listings for the medicube and LG Pra.L devices give one year of free after-sales service for units sold in Korea, with the warranty card kept. Keep the receipt and ask the brand about service abroad before you buy.
More questionsAre these beauty devices medical devices?
Not the medicube ones, by their own listings. medicube's Olive Young Korea listings for the Booster Pro X2 and Mini Booster Pro Plus state that each is a skin beauty device, not a medical device. We make no claim about what any of the five devices will do for your skin.
Is the Booster Pro X2 on Amazon US the same device as in Korea?
The Booster Pro X2 carries the same name on medicube's US store and on Amazon US, where Medicube & Aprilskin sells it, but we did not compare the US and Korean units part by part.
How should I start with the medicube Booster Pro X2 or Mini Booster Pro Plus?
Start at level 1. medicube's Olive Young Korea listings say to begin at level 1 the first time and never to use either device on the areas the manual rules out. Read the manual in the box before the first session, and stop if your skin feels uncomfortable.
