Sweet Space is a foreign foods store in the Coex Mall, near the ABC shoe store that's close to the Lake Food Court. It has many items you may want to buy like: Campbells soup, cookies, and many different kinds of candy from: England, Germany, Japan, and the USA.

Pace picante costs 1,000 won and I was able to buy 4 cans of Campbells Cream of Aspargus Soup for 5,000 won.

The store's website is- http://www.yeshs.com/english/

The next time you're at the Coex Mall, take a looksee.

BTW, Thanks to nolegirl for letting me know about this place. Wink

There are two other outlets I know of. One is near Apgujeong station, going south on the west side of the road before you hit Hi Mart. The other one is about a 10 minute walk from Yeoksam station: come out exit 1 and walk straight (south) til you come to an intersection with a Dunkin Donuts on the opposite corner. Take a left and it's 2/3 of the way down the block.

I used to go there to get Dentyne ice but they don't seem to stock it any more.

Oh, you're talking about the Jelly Belly store, right? Yeah, I go there for, well, Jelly Bellies. Those things are like crack. You can buy individual ones, or you can buy the rip-off one in the little tin box, or (my favorite) the big bad with all the little mini bags in them. That one's $6.00. I usually give the disgusting licorice ones to the bad students.

Licorice ones are one of the best! thats the only reason for buying jelly bellies which are WAY overpriced!

I used to buy Snapple there, 2 bottles for 2000 won. The deals aren't as good as they used to be. For other stuff, the foreign supermarket in Itaewon is still better.

Ah, the foreign market in Itaewon. I'll never go back there. I bought a couple of bags of Basmati rice and later found out that they had maggots inside. I'm sure that they're a good source of protein, but I'll pass.

the pace picante is on sale - the expiration date on those bottles is october 30th. 2 for 1 on the pasta sauce is a good deal. there is no licorice in that store.
