Anyone know of a place where I can find a good selection of Western hair dye products, like Loreal?

I don't know about a GOOD selection of hair dyes, but your best bet is to search around at pharmacies. Olive, Watson's, et. al. Wherever you find a place that has loads of makeup, you should find some sort of western hair dyes. If you're looking for blonde in particular, you're never going to find it. But browns and occasionally reddish browns you can find. I do miss the days of too many options of hair dyes at Walmart or at the supermarkets in New Zealand.

Be careful. I recently dyed my hair with L'Oreal Superior Preference (I think that's the name). I chose a "Natural Brown" with a western model on the front because it matched my hair. Well, the next thing I know is I have a head full of black hair. That has never happened back home but for some reason, it's happened twice here in Korea. The packaging does not seem to represent the actual product.

you can buy it anywhere. l'oreal has a huge market share here.
its also, what the stylists use.
if you are looking for a different brand, you can always order your stuff in. the stylists here will use it on you.
thats what i do. i order my hair dye in, go to johnny's and tell him to use it and how to apply it.
end result is always awesome ^&^
