Can someone give me directions to the adult store in Itaewon? I found a link but the directions were pretty general, i.e., second floor above a row of shops. Can someone give me a better idea of which shops and the name of the store?

It's just opposite of where I live; I can see it from my balcony.

[actuallyusefuldirections] Very near the Cheil Building and almost opposite the IP Boutique (nee Itaewon) Hotel but about 50m towards Hannam. Use street view from this link http://local.daum.net/map/index.jsp?urlX=499716&urlY=1121069&urlLevel=1&map_type=TYPE_SKYVIEW&map_hybrid=true&SHOWMARK=true and you can see it through the trees close to the pedestrian crossing.[/actuallyusefuldirections]

EDIT: A bit more precise: If you look at the map you see the main street and another large street (like a 'T') going down to Hannam past the hospital. If you're looking that way, take the pedestrian crossing to your left (not the one opposite the Cheil Building) and it should be on the 2nd floor of the 2nd or 3rd house left of the crossing.

Is it decent?

I haven't visited yet so...

- I can't say if the selection is "decent"

- It appears that one could enter in a "decent", i.e. inconspicuous manner

- this being an "adult" shop, I certainly wish for a certain lack of decency inside.

But from what I remember from reading here, there are plenty of writing members who frequent the shop. Oh, I think there's another one down the street past Chef Meili's.

there is one not far from taco bell - keep following that street down past where its so busy and its on your right hand side...2nd/3rd floor

while not a "regular" i have been a couple of times and they have a reasonable selection of lube, toys and such...the outside looks didgy but inside its fine, if a little pricey.

WTH??!!

This is the second thread about an adult store in Itaewon. Don't people realize that sex shops are a dime a dozen, everywhere. Seong In Yong Pum (성인용품). Just look up as you walk around ANY town, you'll find one.

I don't know the name of the shop, but I'd say these are pretty specific directions.
