Who has gone to the one that just opened here in Seoul? The one I went to outside of Korea was not so great. The stuff looked cheap and low quality, mostly. I heard the one here is 3 stories. We need H&M here.

i love the one in myeongdong. it's three stories and they have some pretty good stuff, especially outerwear and dress pants. got a few days worth of outfits and two winter coats for less than $200.

forever 21 is cheap in general. you get what you pay for, so don't expect it to be high quality, even back in the states. overall, however, it's a great bargain.

The one in Myeongdong is great! It's huge and way more organized/less cluttered than the one's in the states. Of course it's low quality, that's why it's cheap. I don't expect things from there to last very long, but if they do, then I love it even more. The prices are a little more expensive than in America, but it's still worth it to me. I was so happy to see that one opened.

Yeah, I wish there was an H & M, too.

I just saw on the net last night that H&M is slated to come here in the beginning of 2009, along with Top Shop in Myeongdong, in the Avatar mall across from Zara. I also saw that Victoria's Secret should be here sometime in the beginnijng of 2009. That will be nice!

Oh, i'm so happy about H&M and Victoria's Secret!!! that would make me sooo happy!

As for F21, I've never been there since we didn't have it in Montreal but I'm looking forward to check it out. I heard it's really cheap indeed, but it's more for trendy pieces you only wear for one season.

Myeong-Dong Exit 5, then turn left to the big busy street where there is a Pascucci cafe... just walk straight on that road, after two blocks you'll see Zara and F21 in the same building!

I don't even want to think about how much a VS bra would cost here. On average, their bras are around $50 in the US.

It's probably better to order online since they ship internationally, but I think the shipping costs are pretty high.
