Directions to Yangjae Costco:

Exit Yangjae station, exit #7. Walk down the street (you should be just past Burger King) about 20 meters or so, until you're in front of the 7-Eleven and the Crown Bakery. Wait for green bus #08; it comes every 10-15 minutes or so. Take that bus until (nearly) the end of the route. There is an announcement that tells you when you've gotten to the Hi-Brand-uh/Emart/Costco stop. You could also ask someone on the bus, if you're nervous you'll miss it. But it's pretty easy to find. If you've never been there before, the building is rather nondescript (just like the Costcos in the US) but it's a huge brownish building near a BMW & Cadillac dealership, across the street from the Starbucks in the Motorola building, which is very tall.

If you're coming from Gangnam station area, there's also a green bus that stops on the street outside the front door of the Costco, very close to the BMW dealership. I believe it's bus 4424, but it might be 4412. I can't remember 'cuz I never take that one.

If you're going shopping remember to bring a bag or something to tote home all your loot.


Unlike other stores, the cashiers don't have any bags. If you pay for all of your stuff and then ask for a bag, you're in for a headache, because you have to go all the way back in.

And since it's across from an E-Mart, you can go shopping like craaaaazy!

I think you have to pay 35,000 won for a membership in order to get access to the food court........
