"Standing / Non-reserved Seat" is the cheapest fare on Korail:

But how can I purchase a "Standing / Non-reserved Seat" Korail train ticket online?

I only see two purchase options (first class and economy) on Lets Korial:

while clicking on fare:

shows a third fare category "Standing / Non-reserved Seat" (shown in the first screenshot).

E.g. the SNCF in France does allow online booking for non-reserved seats ("TGV : place(s) assise(s) non garantie(s)"), so it's conceivable that Korail allows the same.

Simply put, you can't. Online booking is always for reserving seats, it doesn't make sense to book a non-reserved seat. To get the non-reserved seat, you have to buy the ticket yourself at the station physically, which is a basic fare ticket.

Similar to what @lambshaanxy has mentioned

Note that you can book non-reserved seats e.g. in SNCF France here - @Franck Dernoncourt
