Seems that if they can find a purveyor for the stuff they sell that someone else is also doing so? Is there somewhere else that sells the variety of frozen, dairy, dry, and other imported good without the %200 markup? I can't believe this is the only place in Seoul that sells things like frozen cherries and lamb. What gives? There must be other places.

Try Haddon House just around the corner and up the road.

There also used to be another import grocery store in the French area of Bangbae across the river. I forget the name. Does anyone know if it is still there?

All such stores are going to be expensive.

I buy frozen cherries from Costco all the time.

You get a 5 pound (2.27kg) bag, for 16,000 won I believe. They also sell frozen mango, strawberries, etc.

..and for those of you who like fresh blueberries, not frozen, E-mart was selling them today in Godeok-Dong, Gangdong-gu. I couldn't believe it!!!
First time in 4 years that I see fresh blueberries ripe for eating being sold
in a supermarket in Korea...NOPE, not even Hannam market or Costco sell fresh blueberries and rasberries..

Pretty expensive though, actually insane!! 110 g=6,000 won Shocked
