Surely there must be some place you can get these in Korea? The spray stuff does the trick, but is messy and tricky to apply evenly and properly. |

Costco, I think. Also at Homever.
I know for sure you can buy overpriced ones in Itaewon at the red door and also in the area below (but on the same street) as hooker hill. The foreign market stores have some of this stuff. It runs 6,000 to 10,000 per stick, though. |

Nothing at Costco, amazingly. I even checked with a manger who spoke OK English, he says the Korean Costco doesn't carry deoderant, and he seemed a little embarrassed and apologetic.
I'm headed to Seoul in a few hours; I'll look for an Emart as there doesn't seem to be one in my town. Lotte mart only has spray. Dammit. |

I remember when I lived in Cheonan and had a hard time finding deodorant at an E-Mart there during winter, and they told me they didn't carry it during winter. I was incredulous. But, I did manage to find it in Cheonan when I lived there. In big cities like Seoul and areas around it, it is generally not a problem to find it. |

Shincheon (Yonse Uni). Near exit 8, walk up and look left, it's a low ground-level market;
and in a shop next to a chicken galbi spot, next to that so-called park behind Hyundai Dept. Store.
Olympic Park, near the exit, had it too, been a long time since I've been there |
