There are many reviews saying that Inventario 2026 this year has much more to see and experiential booths than last year.

The booths particularly frequently mentioned in reviews include Hello Kitty collaboration goods, the sticky note booth, the ink experience zone, the masking tape booth, making your own notebook, fountain pen ink testing, making eraser lunch boxes, Sharpie pencil sharpeners, and the Yangjisa PD Notebook booth. In addition to the fun of actually trying out and selecting stationery, there is also great enjoyment in browsing nostalgic items and sentimental goods.

However, popular booths can have quite long waiting times. In actual visitor reviews, there were reports that the wait time for the Hello Kitty booth was very long, and there were also reactions that the checkout line alone for the sticky note booth appeared to be about 30 to 40 minutes.

4. What are the key checkpoints to know before visiting?

To properly enjoy Inventario 2026, preparation before entry is important.

First, check your Naver reservation ticket and be prepared to present your QR code or booking details immediately. Since the parking lot at COEX is very crowded on weekends and parking fees are high, it is more convenient to use public transportation if possible. In particular, travel time before entry can be long if the crowds overlap with visitors to COEX Mall.

It is a good idea to make a shopping plan in advance. Since stationery fairs feature many small items, it is easy to end up spending more than expected if you think, "I'll just buy this." While some activities are free, there are also paid experiences, such as making your own notebook or participating in a pen buffet, so it is advisable to allocate your budget accordingly.

Popular merchandise or limited edition products may sell out early, and experiential booths may operate on a first-come, first-served or advance reservation basis, so it is recommended to check the official announcements and booth notices once more before visiting.
