About this app
Modu Parking (모두의주차장) is billed by its maker, Modu Company, as South Korea's number-one parking app, aimed at solving two sides of the same problem: drivers who need a spot and space owners with unused capacity. Search a destination and the app surfaces every public, private, and attached lot nearby with price, operating hours, and photos, and lets you filter by lot type. Its differentiator is the partner-lot network, where users can pay a discounted in-app rate — advertised as up to 80% below standard walk-up pricing — instead of the posted on-site fee. A space-sharing marketplace layer also lets private owners list idle spots for other drivers to rent. The app is Korean-market only, with Korean-language content and coverage limited to lots registered within South Korea, making it most useful for residents and daily commuters rather than international visitors.

Pros & cons
What we like
- Large, detailed database of Korean public and private parking lots with price/hours/photos
- Partner-lot discounts can meaningfully cut parking cost versus walk-up pricing
- Space-sharing feature adds supply from private owners in tight-parking areas
- Strong App Store track record with a 4.4 average across thousands of ratings
What could improve
- Korean-language, Korea-only coverage with no use outside the country
- Lot info (hours, price, vacancy) reportedly goes stale at smaller/independent lots
- Discount depth and listing density thin out noticeably outside major metros
How to use Modu Parking (모두의주차장)
- Download the app and search your destination to see nearby parking lots on the map
- Compare listed lots by price, distance, operating hours, and available photos
- Filter by public, private, or attached lot type to narrow choices
- Select a partner lot to view its discounted rate and reserve/pay in-app
- Optionally list your own unused space for others to rent through the sharing feature
Editor’s tips
- Check for a partner-lot badge before parking — that's where the advertised discount actually applies, not every lot listed
- Compare public vs private lot filters separately since public lots are often cheaper but fill up faster in central Seoul
- If you own an unused private space, list it through the sharing feature to offset your own parking costs
- Prices and vacancy can lag in real time at smaller lots, so treat listed rates as a strong estimate rather than guaranteed
Editor’s verdict
Modu Parking has built its reputation as the go-to reference map for Korean drivers hunting for a spot, and the App Store numbers back that up: a 4.4 average across roughly 4,700 ratings is solid for a utility that lives or dies on real-time accuracy. Its core value is straightforward — pull up a destination, see every public and private lot around it with price and hours, then tap into a partner lot for a discount that can reportedly reach 80% off the walk-up rate. That discount marketplace, plus space-sharing for owners who want to rent out unused spots, is what separates it from a plain map overlay. The app is Korea-only and Korean-language first, so it is not useful outside the country and offers little for tourists without local fluency. Overall it is a strong, mature utility for its home market rather than a globally relevant contender, and its value now depends partly on how GS Retail's 2021 acquisition shapes future partner-lot pricing and integration with GS's broader retail ecosystem.

How it compares
vs iParking (아이파킹)
iParking leans harder into EV charging and corporate/monthly parking contracts, while Modu Parking's edge is its broader public+private lot listing base and shared-space marketplace.
vs Kakao T
Kakao T bundles parking into a giant taxi/mobility super-app with wider brand reach, whereas Modu Parking is a dedicated parking specialist with deeper lot-level detail and discount focus.
vs Jumansa (주만사)
Jumansa focuses mainly on monthly/long-term parking contracts and free-lot discovery, while Modu Parking covers both short-term daily parking and space-sharing more broadly.
