I don't remember seeing any big bookstores in Bundang ... when I lived there I'd go to Seoul or order from What The Book. |

The USO is open in Seoul...having been military all my life...I often went to a USO at an airport to wait for departure or in another country.
They have great food , pc's...large screen tv...all kinds of magazines and newspapers, etc to read...
might give that a whirl. |

OK, I remember it now. I've been there, but I preferred the bookstores in Seoul.
Ordering online was more convenient for me:
www.whatthebook.com |

in a recent post somebody mentioned www.whatthebook.com Check that out.
The bookstore in Ori . . . is that the one in the CGV building? Do they have English books? I was there early last year and they didn't. It's cool if they do now.
Where is the bookstore in Sunae? |

They're getting better, though, carrying some hardcover releases and improving their stock of classics. Plus it's Seohyeon -- lots of cute babes.
Not that I care much for that sort of thing, but others might.

The one near Ori stn is Youngpoong bookstore in Apple Plaza, 3rd floor.
It has a small number, maybe 100+, of English language novels and such, and a pretty good supply of EFL books/materials.
It's worth a visit if you live near there.
Apple Plaza just opened recently, right behind Carrefour. |

I've been to the one in Apple Plaza and it's relatively small selection compared to Seohyun (which I visited after I got responses).
But I'm real interested in the one in Sunae how do I get to it? |
