One of my Spanish friends gave me some Chorizo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorizo ) as a Christmas present I was thinking of taking it back with my to Korea but not sure if Korean customs will let me.
Anybody know if I will have any problems?

Thanks,

B.

Why would you have a problem with it?

You could declare it.

You should be careful when you buy souvenirs made out of animals or plant materials as they may be prohibited; and all food items shall be subject to quarantine in Korea.
Quarantine required goods(Food, Animal material, Plant Material, etc.)
