Do they have them? I mean like sicilian greens, with the pits?

You might not find the pitted green ones but you can get the green ones with pimento or canned black olives at most major supermarkets. I also sometimes see the Greek style kalamata olives but they are over-priced.

Yes, do tell about the Kalamatas.

I'm pretty sure it was in the basement of the Lotte Department Store in Bundang (Sunae Station). Not in the main supermarket but with the random foods over near The Body Shop. They may also have them in the Hannam Market near Itaewon. Nothing like that out here in Gangneung though.

Kalmata olives are at Haddon House, Hannam Market and can't remember the other place I've bought them.
From Oz in a jar, with pitts or without.
Not over priced, they taste 100 times better than that tinned crap.
