How to Download Genie Music

For international K-pop fans, downloading music from Genie - one of South Korea's top digital streaming platforms - can feel frustratingly out of reach. With region-locked access, Korean-language interfaces, and local payment restrictions, many users outside Korea struggle to support their favorite artists through official downloads. Whether you're aiming to boost digital sales or simply want to own high-quality tracks, the process isn't as simple as it should be. In this guide, we'll walk you through exactly how to download Genie music as an international user.

Part 1. How to Download Genie Music Officially

Before downloading music from Genie, the first thing we should do is to get the way to visit the Genie app or website. In this part, we will discuss how to visit Genie app and how to download music from Genie officially.

1.1 How to Download the Genie App

Step 1: As of early 2021, creating a new Genie account requires a Korean phone number for verification, which poses a challenge for international users. You can purchase pre-verified Genie accounts through trusted fan communities or services.

Step 2: Genie primarily accepts Korean payment methods, making it difficult for international users to purchase download passes directly. You can use Korean iTunes or Google Play gift cards to add credit to your accounts, enabling you to purchase passes. This method requires setting up a Korean Apple ID or Google account.

Step 3: When you complete the above 2 steps, you can download the APK from Uptodown or the Korean Google Play Store for Android users. iOS users need to create a Korean Apple ID and download the app from the Korean App Store. You will need an address and payment method for this process.

If you just want to listen to and download Genie music on PC, you don't have to download the Genie app. The Genie website can also let you enjoy Genie music with ease.
