My boyfriend recently got an Xbox 360 and would like to have it modded to play US games and burned discs. I know that Yongsan is the mecca for things like this, but is there any place in Busan that would be able to do it?

If he bought a Korean Xbox it will be region-locked. That is, he won't be able to play U.S. games unless they are region-free. The good news is that about 80% of them are region free these days. Modding will not change the region requirement unless you get it JTAGed, which is a difficult and expensive process.

Not sure if there are places in Busan that will mod xboxes. Your best bet is the underground arcade starting from Somyeon and heading north to Bujeon-dong.
