I know I have read about that people miss drinking Dr. Pepper. I found a place near Seoul Station that has it. If you take exit 1 and turn right there is a beer coffee hof on the second floor. It should have red and white comfortable looking chairs. They have Dr.Pepper and Mt. Dew there if anyone has a craving for it. Cant remember the price though.

Is it really that hard to find? My Homeplus has it, and I'm all the way down in Southern Jeollanamdo.

I found one at a "subway" in busan.

Tasted like utter crap.

Rancid, acidic, and possibly poison.

It's probably been sitting there for like 7-8 years brewingin it's own unatural PH balance.

Let's hope not all the Dr. Peppers here are like that...
Have you tried it?

Did it taste like tossed salad?

Is it true the secret ingredient is prune juice?

It's readily available in GS25s, at least in Seoul.

South Asian food market beside "What the Book" has Dr. Pepper in stock on a regular basis.

I see it nearly everywhere. In fact, maybe I'll go get a can now.

Costco has it, by the case, at a much lower price than anywhere else.

Dr Pepper is everywhere here. DIET Dr Pepper, on the other hand, is not. That's the one I'd kill for.

The Dr. is not in. I'm sure some is available in Seoul as a few people mentioned, but that's the only market getting all these sorts of various things non-Korean.

Costco's the place if you feel like stocking up. I usually don't feel like carrying drinks out of there since I buy so much of everything else, LOL. I usually get mine at Homeplus or GS25. Not every GS25 carries it I've noticed, but I've always seen it at Homeplus.

I live out in the boonies and they have it at my local convenience store.

How much is it at Costco?

Lucky Mart grocery store in Hyehwa has it for 600 won a can. No need to buy a case worth.

Nice job being observant and sharing the information. Thanks.
