no idea whether this will suit you, but Azteco vouchers are available in South Korea -

dunno if you are ok with the premium, or the method of purchase, but both On Chain and LN vouchers can be obtained (up to max 1k USD equivalent) -

some methods are more discreet than others - where i live, for example, i can buy in a store, like a mobile top up, with cash - but i'm not sure how it is in your part of the world.
This looks pretty cool. I quickly checked, seems like they always charge 10% commission... is that common in your part of the world too?
reply
yes, in my experience 10% - where i am that's less than ATM's, and more discreet, at least in areas like mine that offer the physical voucher at a store for cash.

Got it.
Here, it's adding another 5% service fee only for the payment part. I'll keep this approach in mind if the other options outlined here do not work out. Korea seems to only have the online option.
It's quite amazing to see how much services like Azteco or simply ATMs can charge as middlemen to provide people with the basic ability to buy Bitcoin...
