According to a report by N. News on February 3rd, Japan Tobacco International's (JTI) South Korea Company announced that sales of its heated tobacco device, "Ploom X Advanced," will be expanded to include the third-party e-commerce platforms Coupang and Naver.
Since its launch in November 2024, "Ploom X Advanced" has begun selling on the "JTI Korea" page on the Coupang platform and the "Ploom Store" on Naver. Consumers can purchase devices in four colors including Slate Grey, Navy Blue, Black, and Silver through these platforms, with a discount of 40,000 Korean Won (approximately $30).
