I've seen Lucky Charms and Cinnamon Toast Crunch at Costco, and Cap'N Crunch at a black market store at Main Gate in Songtan but I have never see Trix cereal in Korea.
You might be able to get Foreign Food Mart and National Food Mart in Itaewon to stock it if you bring them a picture printed from the internet. |

I have seen Froot Loops at Homeplus.
If anyone spots Cocoa and Fruity Pebbles I would appreciate a shout. |

I have lived in Seoul for 7 years. I have never seen Trix cereal in all that time. I actually forgot about it until I saw this post. But who knows? Maybe one of the grocery stores in Itaewon carries it. I have been surprised by what I have found at the High Street Market near the International Clinic. |

They had Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa pebbles at I Love Cookie in Jeongja, Bundang.
I have seen Trix there as well.
Haven't been in awhile though but they usually have a box or two. Pricey so never buy them (believe 11,000W) |

Thanks for the tip. Where is this place and how do you get there? |

Jeongja Station Bundang Line
Go out exit 4 and go straight. Cross the small street and keep walking parallel to the main street (on your right). Keep walking until you come to a large intersection. % Cross the street (go straight) and turn left on the other side. Go straight and you will cross another small street. Then, you should see an apartment complex you can walk through (Paragon). It will be a big archway entrance. In this courtyard/walkway, look left and you will see it. It has a large display of potato chips outside.
If you take the Shin-Bundang line, go out exit 5. Once outside, turn around. Then follow the instructions above from the % symbol. |

Yeah, she usually has some decent cereals. I have seen Fruity Pebbles, Trix, and Captain Crunch on occasion too. If you ask her, she might even order it for you. Just be prepared to pay about 12-14,000 for those... |

It makes no sense for the Korean government to block the import of popular cereals like these because there are no Korean manufacturer's of these cereals. Who are they "protecting?" |

Go home. If you can't get by without some crap breakfast cereal, odds are you aren't cut out to work abroad. |

Maybe Koreans don't manufacture it cause they are smart.
