there's a shop in itaewon, right when you come out of the station near Gecko's but they cost a small fortune. The stuff from Victoria's Secret is much cheaper, and their service is great.

I've bought underwear (bras) from Marks and Spencers which was in the Hyundai Dept Store (Cheon-ho, Line 5).

Have you heard of the James Dean underwear shops? I get mine there. Also, Bodyguard is good. It is a chain connected with the James Dean shops.

i've seen the shops, but given the koreanized sizing...not gonna happen. besides, even b cups are ugly here- enough support to hold up a bridge.

JAPAN
Go to Japan for any undies...do not buy them in Korea....I think Tiger Beer or somebody mentioned that Korea has the worlds ugliest underwear..(apostrophe not working)..and he is right.
Anyway, it is only about 200,000 won to book a flight. It will be worth it if you are staying for a while and do not know anybody to get on the base.

How can we justify calling them "unmentionables" when a vast majority of American movie stars and singers are showing them to everyone?
