Ummm. Shipping by road from Korea hardly maximizes profits and looking at a map of the world it probably isn't the fastest and easiest route either, 6 days seem rather impossible to me.

Although I have no idea if it only takes 10 to 14 days to ship to the large european harbours (Rotterdam, Hamburg, for example).

For shipping by train you probably already have two days from Korea to Russia.

So if it is supposed to take around two weeks, I guess it's a mixture between ship and plane or plane and road.

As said: Only guessing.
