I am not sure if Acuvues are made in Korea….but undoubtedly, they are sold in Korea.

Why do my IKEA directions have English on them sometimes?

They’re a Swedish comapny, but selling in English speaking countries.

Then again, they started removing all the words from their instructions, now it’s all creepy pictures. :P

Did you order them directly from Accuvue from their website ?

If not, it’s possible they might be a counterfeit. There is so much of that going on nowadays.

From whom did you order them ?

ordered them from 1800Contacts. Theyre on every box ive ever seen!

Again, it’s because they market their products in Korea.

It’s cheaper to print one box for everyone than specialize boxes for different areas. On top of that, if you ever stop into specialty stores you’ll see some common brands with Spanish, Chinese, Arabic labels. It all depends on who they’re marketing to, and who is in the area. It’s just easier.
