I'm going to be the first one to offer unhelpful advice and say Hooker Hill or Homo Hill in Itaewon, depending on your preference.

I'll also give some helpful advice and say have them shipped from another country if they are hard to find her. Or buy some regular balls and use those.

ummm... I'm not a juggler, but have you tried a balled up pair of socks? (Maybe stuff some coins in for added weight?)

Not the same thing to be sure, but good enough in a pinch...?

There is a juggling supply store about a 10 min walk from Sadang station, but it is really expensive. Go out exit 7 (I think!) and walk about 10 mins until you see a building with a unicycle on the side of it. The store is on the second floor.

Here is a link with the info:

Thanks, how much would I expect to pay for a basic set?

I think that bean-bag type balls were 8 000 won each. There were other balls, but they wasn't anything cheaper than that. They also sell clubs etc, but REALLY expensive (50 000 for one club). It is worth a visit, they have a variety of stuff, but it might be cheaper to get stuff shipped.

I remember seeing some made from sand in balloons. There were several layers for strength, and the outer balloons had fairly large holes cut out of them to give a multi colored effect.

Shouldn't be hard to duplicate
