 |
|
I'm heading back to Canada for a few weeks and I'd like to pick up a Korean Mask for my nieces. I don't live in Seoul, but I figured the next time I'm there the best place to go would be that tourist strip in Insadong. Are there any other places worth checking out? And what kind of money should I expect to pay?
Any tips/advice appreciated.
Thanks |

If you can read Korean or get help registering, this is a good site, and they gift-wrap, too!

Click the third option (장식용품) underneath the logo to see the masks they have available.
Good luck! |

| Get yourself to NamDaeMoon or DongDaeMoon. That's where all the other retailers in Korea get theirs, mark them up, and sell them. If you're pressed for time, and don't mind spending an extra 5 or 10 bucks, hit Itaewon. Insadong is, as far as I know, more expensive. |
