There are a few you can get around here. I've seen Lifesavers in a few unlikely places. When my friend was visiting from Tokyo last year, he brought back an entire bag of Oh Henry chocolate bars.

I get most of my candy from Ebay. Quite a few of the stores will ship overseas.

It depends on what you're looking for and in what quantity. You can find alot of candies here at the black market shops but you'll be paying an arm and a leg. It's not bad when you suddenly want a pack of decent chewing gum but if you're looking to be giving out candies to students you may want to try Costco or have someone ship them from home to you.
I believe Ebay does deliver to Korea as well.

Thanks to melamine, you better be careful what candy you eat these days, and where it comes from.

I think you mean thanks to unscrupulous, conniving, Chinese entrepreneurs...

Melamine is good - without it - we wouldn't have whiteboards...
