I've seen all of those at black markets (except juji fruit, I have no idea what that is) |

I believe there is a rather large candy store at COEX in Seoul. Cant say for certain what you are searching for is there..but if you haven't already it might be worth a look. |

The bulk candy stores are your best bet; they're usually at attractions like COEX, amusement parks etc. I have found peach rings. |

Sweet Spot? I know there are candy shops on the 4th and 6th floors above Yongsan station.
It depends on what candy you want, OP. What are you craving? |

There is a bulk candy section with all kinds of American candy (including sour fruit salad gummies!) at an Artbox in Myeongdong. Saw it on the weekend. |

There's a chain that you find everywhere (including Jamsil, where there's a big branch next to the Lotteworld, and a smaller one within Toys R Us). I can't remember the name though. T_T I keep on thinking Teenie Weenie, but that's the clothing store. |

There's a popular candy shop on the 6th floor at Yongsan Station around the corner from CGV IMax cinema. |

just go to the vending machines outside the guard shack/ID place at the US army base (no base pass/escort needed); Ichon subway station, exits 1,2. Accept US dollars only, however. You don't actually have to go on the base, just to the guard shack; thank me later....................... |

I know there will be some stands where people will sell that. I usually see them in front of supermarkets. |

Weeny Beeny.
I found the one on the 6th floor at Yongsan Stn today and got a little bag of candy. They've got a pretty decent selection. It's 3800 won/100g. |
