Hey, can anybody tell me if there is an English language bookstore, or a used bookstore, in Busan?
Also, where can I get an International Herald Tribune newspaper?
Thanks!

For books you can go to Kyobo book store which is just south of the Seomyon subway stop. If you are walking from the stop it will be on your right (you have to go down some stairs).
Don't know about the paper though.

here in Seoul, my local GS25 carries the IHT... you might just need to pop into a larger convenience store chain here and there and find one that carries the paper. I'm sure nobody ever buys the paper at my store.

There is also a bookstore in the basement of Sfunz which is across from Haeundae Station. You hae to use the small escalators in front of the Artbox at teh opposite end of the 1st floor from the Megabox ticket window.

You can get subscription to IHT or the Jangsan Starbucks carries it every day. You might check your local starbucks.
