Atomy’s Korean All-in-One Laundry Detergent Pods go into the empty washing drum first, with the laundry placed on top. The directions say not to put them into the detergent drawer. They describe use in both drum/front-loading and conventional machines.
The dose depends on the laundry in this wash, not the maximum capacity printed on the machine.
| Laundry amount | Pods |
|---|---|
| Up to 3 kg | 1 |
| More than 3 kg, up to 7 kg | 2 |
| More than 7 kg, up to 14 kg | 4 |
The official table shows upper thresholds of 3, 7 and 14 kg. The wording above makes the successive bands explicit so the rows are not mistaken for overlapping choices. This guide does not extrapolate a dose above the final band.
A 100-pod pack is not always 100 washes
The Korean pack contains 100 pods. At one pod each wash, that is 100 wash doses; at two, 50; at four, 25.
For a 4 kg load, the applicable band uses two pods. Owning a 14 kg-capacity machine does not turn that same load into a four-pod wash.
Before washing, check the garment care labels as well as the detergent directions.
Use intact pods with dry hands
Handle pods with dry hands, keep moisture out of the package, and close it securely after use. Store it out of children’s reach. Child-resistant features are not a substitute for safe storage.
The official page contains conflicting wording: a handwashing tip mentions cutting a pod, while its precautions say not to cut pods. This article covers machine washing and does not adopt the cutting tip or provide a handwashing method. For handwashing, obtain clear product-specific advice from the manufacturer.
Do not cut pods to make a fractional machine-wash dose. Keep the original labelled packaging available if you need help identifying the product or handling an exposure.
The machine-wash sequence is straightforward: confirm the clothing is washable, select the dose for the actual load, place intact pods in the drum, then add the laundry.
