Compliance considerations | SMS messages toward South Korea would be automatically appended with [Web 발신] which means the message is A2P or [국제발신] which means the message is sent from abroad. Only numeric senderId is supported and it would be automatically prefixed with 009 or 006. Only EUC-KR characters are supported by the South Korean mobile operators so carefully review your content and only use characters that are on the list. Sending of adult and gambling related content is strictly prohibited.
