Is there a Korean version or a place to buy some? I'm about to get sick and I hate getting sick. Need to snuff it out NOW!

The red door "black market" store in Itaewon usually has some, if you're in Seoul.

Sweet, blessed nyquil....

I saw some in an import store at the underground shopping centre in Myeong Dong at the weekend.

What is it?

It's cold medicine so that you can sleep when you're sick, but I use it for those rare bouts of insomnia. It's got alcohol in it!

My co-teacher says you can get ��Ź 600 at any pharmacy. (Contac 600) She says most Korean cold medicine will make you sleep.

I used to take it and it worked really well but I heard it's been pulled off the market.

Just get one of those sleeping aids at the pharmacy. They contain antihistamines, which is what knocks you out in certain cold medicine, such as NyQuil.

You can get it at the Hannam Supermarket, right near the front door at that little shop that sells stuff from the US army base. You can also get it in some of the underground shops in Dongdaemun or Myeondong. It costs about 8 - 10 thousand won.
