Sometimes, I have seen a flaxseed cereal at the foreign market in Itaewon.

You can order it from iHerb.com.

http://www.iherb.com/Bob-s-Red-Mill-Whole-Ground-Flaxseed-Meal-16-oz-1-lb-453-g/13512?at=0

I just got this one last week and it's pretty good.

You can use code TOK724 for $5 off your first order and shipping to Korea is on sale this month. With CJ shipping, it got here in less than a week.

Homeplus sells it in bulk, it's in the larger Emarts but not the one nearest me (Yongsan) which is too small, in the section where you have the worker scoop up the amount you want. However, they are not packaged airtight and I've always heard that flax seed should be stored airtight... I still buy them, though.

He's absolutely right. iHerb.com is great. And CJ Shipping (a Korean company) is very fast and reliable and inexpensive compared to most other shippers for similar items.

And the discount code is a good deal too if it's your first iHerb.com order. I order from them all the time.

Not sure why you want flax, but if it's for the Omega-3, I hope you are aware that most people aren't able to properly process Omega-3 from flaxseed, and will benefit more by obtaining it from fish oil or, best of all, krill oil.

Cheers.
