For some weird reason, Korea Korg distributor doesn’t have the official Korg KA350 power supply. They said they use a custom 3rd party power supply.
So they gave me this: https://imgur.com/a/1pvSNPQ
( spec for this power supply: Input AC100-240V, 50/60Hz, 1.5A. Output DC 9.0V , 2.0 A )
It came with some type of transformer for the tip.
( I honestly don't like using a transformer for the tip. Is this safe ? )

This is the comparison with the original KA350.
The one I ordered from Korea tip is a bit longer than the original KA350, so the silver metal part stick out like this when I plug it in to my Minilogue XD module https://imgur.com/a/goFemEN
Is this ok ?
Will using this might damage my Minilogue XD module ? |

It should be OK. The only issue I see is the replacement plug/adapter combination creates a longer lever, so pulling on the cable will create a larger sideways force on the Minilogue's connector. If you take care with avoiding excessive pull on the cable (you should be doing this already, anyway) then it shouldn't be an issue. What happened to the original KA350 PSU?

I still have the original KA350, but I was tired of using it with a down transformer so I ordered one from Korea to just use it directly from a multi outlet.
The adapter is from Korea's only Korg distributor and they said they don't sell the original KA350 so I guess this plug is the best I could get here for my Minilogue XD module... |

If it is the proper Korg KA350 power supply, look closely at the ratings label. On the one I have, it shows 100V AC on the "second" line, but on the "third" subdivision, it indicates 100-240V AC, so this seems to be a wide input voltage range switching adapter.
The product image of the KA350 from Thomann shows it to be 100-240V input.
