Frequently asked questions
Last updated: 22 September 2026
HANARI is a Korean rice-ferment skincare brand from WeBring, preparing its first launch in India. The product is still in development, so several of these answers are about what has not been decided yet. We would rather say that plainly than let you guess.
When will HANARI launch in India?
We are working toward the first half of 2027. That is a target rather than a promise: the date depends on formula approval and supplier verification, and we will not announce a firm one until both are finished.
If you join the waitlist we will write once, when it is ready.
What does the name HANARI mean?
“HAN” holds Korea. “NARI” overlays the image of the Korean lily, nari, with the sound of the Hindi word नारी (nari), meaning woman.
The name carries the brand's direction: it begins in Korea, but it thinks about everyday life in India first.
Who makes HANARI?
HANARI is operated by WeBring, a company registered in the Republic of Korea at 8, Gangnam-daero 53-gil, Seocho-gu, Seoul.
Its Korean business registration number is 742-81-02381, and the contact for both customer and distribution enquiries is Cho Mi-young at mycho@webring.kr.
What is rice-ferment skincare?
Fermentation breaks ingredients down into smaller compounds, and it is a long-standing part of how Korean skincare is formulated. A rice ferment is made by fermenting rice or rice bran.
The HANARI concept pairs one such ferment with one modern active. We are not publishing performance claims about that combination until the formula is approved.
Why can I not buy HANARI yet?
The formula is still in development. Until it is approved and the suppliers are verified there is no final ingredient list, no final packaging, and no claim we are willing to stand behind — so there is nothing to sell yet.
Are the product images on this site real photographs?
No. Every product image on this site is a concept render, and each one is labelled as such where it appears.
Ingredients, packaging and claims are not final, so the renders show the direction rather than a finished product.
Which HANARI product launches first, and in what sizes?
Even Days Serum, in 30 mL and a 10 mL mini. Clean Start Gel Cleanser and Air-Fit Gel Cream come later in the ritual rather than at launch.
Will you publish the full ingredient list?
Yes. The final INCI list — the full ingredient listing — along with ingredient origin and any performance claims, will be published only after formula approval and supplier verification.
This site is where they will appear first.
Why is a Korean brand launching in India first?
Two reasons are already visible in the concept. Rice is an everyday grain in India rather than an unfamiliar import, so the starting ingredient needs no explanation.
And heat and humidity change how a product feels, so the texture is being designed around that climate from the start rather than adapted to it afterwards.
What happens to my email address if I join the waitlist?
It is used only to send HANARI launch updates. We expect to write a handful of times before launch, every email carries an unsubscribe link, and we keep the address for up to three years or delete it immediately on request.
