If you want to import food (including food containers) for sale or business purposes, you have to file an import declaration with the Minister of Food and Drug Safety.
Even if an internet purchasing agent such as imported food intends to file an import declaration,
Even for a purchasing agent, the declaration is needed to be submitted to the head of the Local Food
and Drug Administration which manages the place of customs clearance for imported food.

Unfortunately, Grab or Uber is not available in Korea.
Uber had launched in Seoul in 2013, however, due to regulations and the taxi industry’s resistance, Uber was ordered to stop operations in 2015. Grab never entered the market.

Luna said,
Yes, but you must convert it to a Korean Driver's license.
You will need your driver's license, passport, alien registration card, seal (signature possible), copies of pictures (3 X 4 cm) for the conversion documents.
Make sure that the country on your passport must be the same as the country on your driver's license
You also need a notary of translation of foreign driver license (except English) and verification from the consulate general (US, England, France, Canada, Germany, Japan, and Spain).
If your driver's license issue date is not present, confirmation of the issue date must be provided.
You can also drive legally in Korea with an international Driving Permit for 1 year. But, the foreign license must not expire during that period.

Yes, You can also apply for other people at the same time and pay once for all, up to a maximum of 30 people. K-ETA fee is 10,000 KRW (additional fees excluded).
You can use debit cards or global credit cards such as VISA, Master, JCB, or Express to pay the fee.
Generally, the application will be automatically approved within 10 - 30 minutes, but if any issue arises, the K-ETA official will check and determine the traveler as "Selectee" or "Not OK" within 24 hours.
* Selectees will be sent to secondary inspection upon entry and will undergo an interview.
* If you are determined as "Not OK", you must apply for a Visa instead.

To submit a South Korea K-ETA application, it is first necessary to meet the South Korea visa requirements.
The following documents are required for a South Korea ETA online application:
- valid passport from an eVisa-eligible country
- valid debit or credit card to pay the Korea ETA fee
- current email address at which to receive a copy of the approved ETA for South Korea
- passport-sized photo in color.
Once approved, applicants will be able to present a printed copy of the approved K-ETA alongside their passport to gain entry to South Korea at a border entry point.
The passport you use to travel to South Korea must be the same one used to complete the ETA application form. Dual nationals with multiple passports should keep this in mind.
