I was at gangnam around 10am yesterday, sunday, and the store was open. Err, sorry I can't be of anymore help.

I tried calling the number at the website, for certain shops, but of course they're closed now.. Rolling Eyes

Uniqlo in Seoul is expensive. For a shirt, it costs 19,900W or something. In Japan it was only 1500Y.

1,500.00 JPY = 14,565.59 KRW

An extra $5 for imported clothes isn't that outrageous in Korea. Check out the 100% mark up at The Gap in Myeong Dong.

Yeah. If you can fit, they have some good cotton casuals and some good sales.

I'm in love with Uniqlo!

Cheap prices, good quality, great basics.

I get all my jeans from there: the regular skinnies are 40$, the short ones are 30$, and I got a wide-leg pair for 10$.

T-shirts for 5$ on sale, and they always have a guest designer (such as Alexander Wang).

I'll miss it when I'm back in Canada.

There's one at COEX. And there's one at the top of the Lotte youngtown or whatever next to the Lotte dept store downtown.

That's the down side. Their largest in mens tends to run a big medium/tighter large. It's hit and miss.

For girls I think jeans go up to size 28.

Tops for girls are true to size (S, M, L, XL)

There's one in Sinchon.

It's great. The clothing is a tad bland but good summer / casual wear THAT ACTUALLY FITS FORIEGNERS!

I got 3 great cotton v-neck t's for 15,000 that fit perfectly, no flapping down by my knees or too tight around the chest and arms.

Pure bliss.
