Korean KF94 Masks (N95 equivalent) @ Lotte Markets in DC/MD/VA etc. B&M YMMV $6/each

Local Lotte Markets have what appears to be legit KF94 masks which are the Korean N95 equivalent. I know there are some fake Chinese knockoffs of the Korean KF94 but hopefully a reputable company like Lotte isn't selling them.

It was my understanding Korea was banning exports of these outside Korea so I'm not sure how legit these are. If anyone has more information please share.

They were priced at $6 per mask locally which is expensive but perhaps worth it if they are legit KF94.

More info from 3M on comparing these Korea 1st Class/KF94 and other masks:

Didn't even know a market like this existed. Wish I had known when I visited Maryland and DC.

Hi, I have read quite a number of posts from you on masks and wanted to thank you for all the information. I have also purchased Powecoms from Nehydro and Bona Fide, FYI.

I went to one of the Lotte Markets to check this out. The following is what they are selling for $5.99 a piece: https://phermology.com/products/w...tive-masks It is made in China and I could not find any information on the manufacturer. So, I did not buy any. There was another KF94 made in Korea but it was about kid's size. I have a regular-sized head and the lady at the counter told me not to buy.

FYI.
