Its an acquired taste, funny how I never ate in the states. In fact dreaded it. Everything here is so sweet, its a nice change to munch on something bitterly grotesque. I've checked gmarket and the major stores, I haven't been able to find anyone that carries it. They don't even know what it is.

Can anyone suggest places that they've seen it?

I want the really, really strong flavored ones. Preferably hard candy but I'll take the jelly drops if that's all they got

I purchase liquorice online from here -

http://www.liquorice-licorice.co.uk/index.asp?function=CART&ECD=4945&productid=85

Good assortment to choose from, cheap/free shipping, and fast shipping.

My mum's sent me licorice a few times. Tricked my middle school students into eating it. Told them now they knew how I felt trying korean food. Ahh... sweet vengeance.

They ship to Korea? Free? Really? I checked out their site and couldn't find any mention of international shipping (non-European) other than that one must arrange their own shipping if going to the US.

I'd love to order from there. We just got back from Thailand and I was paying $7 per small bag of assorted licorice delights.

I have seen it now and then, as something they'll bring in short term, but in general, no they don't have licorice.

iHerb.com has it. They also have fast, cheap shipping and you can get $5 off your first order if you use this discount code: COC920

Yum. I always order a jar of Arrowhead Mills Organic Crunchy Peanut Butter too when I place an order with them. Just received one today.

what exactly are the main ingredients in licorice? Ive eaten it for years without thinking about it haha. When my students check the dictionary, it doesnt really explain the type that we eat. In the dictionary, it mentions it as a plant/root or somethin along those lines. I just say its sort of jelly
