One thing to bring is deodorant; it can be hard to find and very expensive. Oher than that, you should be able to buy most of everything you need.


biggest lie ever, and i don't know why it's continually supported in this forum.

i have seen every form of deodorant known to man in lotte mart, and i don't even live in seoul.


Definitely not a lie, obviously you don't know what you are talking about. Check the price on that deodorant, and while you're at it, count the number of stores besides Lotte Mart that sell it.


why would i say it if it weren't true?

and the price? my god, people, get a grip.

If you are beginning life in Korea, I recommend letting your mother take care of almost everything, at least til you turn 2.

I always wonder how much deodorant these people who post in these threads are applying each day. You guys going through a stick a week?

The first year I came here I was like, "Shit, gotta pack a tonne of deodorant." So I packed like 4. I think I used three quarters of one by the end.

Uh oh better pack it with me and save a dollar spread over a year. Laughing

Really? I go through about 2 a year. Use it everyday. I hardly think 2 sticks is gonna break you for bag space. There is NO doubt that the US has a much better selection of (quality) deodorant at better prices. Just bring your own to avoid the hassle, especially if you have a certain kind you like.

I picked some up in the big department store in Busan. Couldn't find any at Lotte Mart or Emart here

Spray it on every day and you'll use at least two medium sized spray cans a year
