Korean market data for AI agents: K-beauty/K-food products, Naver trends, stocks, real estate.
Korean market data for AI agents: K-beauty/K-food products, Naver trends, stocks, real estate. The kdata mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 3 defined tools rather than through you.
Korean market data for AI agents — in English JSON. 13 tools covering:
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
Products — search Korean products incl. K-beauty, K-food, K-pop merch (search_korean_products)Trends — Naver search trend indices, viral detection for keywords like buldak or sunscreen (get_korea_trends)Stocks — prices, fundamentals, DART disclosures, investor flows, screeners (5 tools)You will need one environment variable: KDATA_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Kdata's toolset — Products, Trends, Stocks — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by loved0543-dotcom; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
