Not sure where you are located, but I have purchased Crown Royal at a wine and liquor store in New Songdo IFEZ in Incheon for a hair under 50,000 won, pretty pricy, but no more than JD or something similar. I have not seen Apple Pucker, but my co-teacher swears it exsists here.

Radius - Crown Royal is a fine drink, don't get me wrong. But we are soju people. You really should ignore western liquor for a while. Become one with the toad juice.

That's way too much. I've seen it at Costco for 38000 won.

I agree. You can find Crown for a lot cheaper than that. Also, who the heck would pay 50,000 won for JD? I'm pretty sure you can find that for way cheaper at Home Plus or Costco too.

The HomePlus near where I live does NOT have Crown Royal and JD is about 35, I just don't like it as much. I also live in Songdo, so the trip to Costco is quite a hike. But by all means if you live close to Costco go there.

Why the heck would you become an English teacher in Korea if you didn't have a drinking problem? Laughing

** Costco sells Crown.
** Kim's Club (I know there is on at Beomgye Station [line4]) also has Crown.
** Most liquor stores have Crown as well.

I've never understood the world's obsession with Crown Royal.........this coming from a Canadian bloke mind you. It isn't anything special and there are scores of better whiskies out there for a lower price.

The only places you are likely to find liquor stores are foreigner districts. But most grocery stores sell liquor (especially scotch) so it usually isn't a problem.

There's a liquor store chain called 가자 that carries a wide variety of western liquors. Ask around or hit up naver.com
