I think I’m still in denial about this one.
Basically, 댁배 is an express courier service. They are who you call when you need to send something, pretty much anything that can be carried by one person in a truck (maybe two people in a truck), somewhere else, quickly. Need to get a package or important documents across town by noon? No problem. Getting that kimchi fridge you bought on sale at E-Mart back home? No problem.
OK, but there’s more. All the internet shopping you do? The special of fish or fruit that you bought on Auction or CJMall? The new shoes or sweater or bulk order of baby wipes you got on GMarket? That’s how they all get to you. Daek Bae. Quick. Delivery.
Need I say more?

Hi, Cat.
This is the first time to visit your blog and very pleasure to read.
I found your very very slight mistake in describing the serivce.
The service is called ‘Taek Bae’. ‘Taek’ means a house and ‘Bae’ means a delievery.
Happy new year and hope your life in Korea be joyable.
