Next to the flour in the baking section of lotte-mart, home plus, etc.
It is labeled "corn starch" or "corn ??? / the white stuff not the corn flour.
(It was in English). |

Try your local supermarket, look for:
옥수수 (Corn)
콘스타치 (Cornstarch in Hangul) [Cohn-suh-tah-chee] |

Yeah, I should totally buy some too, and use it in the gravy for the turkey I can't get to roast in the oven I don't have for the Thanksgiving that nobody will be celebrating but me.

They usually only have potato starch, which I have found to work equally well. At best I've found a hybrid of corn starch and potato starch. |
