Any store will do. But if you are lost, go to Nampo-dong station, and in the underground shopping area you'll find some.

Happened a couple of weeks ago.
General decided to WAY crack down.

You don't have to be Army just have to have a card.
The cards are caped at a certian number and well ALL sold out.

But across the street from Busan station all the little Fillipa Stores have
it and a lot of western items.

Word. Was in Busan on a trip recently. Forget Seamen's club. It's for Semen. You'd rather have your dinningroom empty and not make money than serve people and get the offered double rate plus tip for take out from Seoulites who are waiting for the KTX? Economic Darwinism. Same military customers, none of the (many) others. See you in the dumpster!
