How much do HD CRT TV's cost here? Are they still available?

Here are come CRT HDTVs on Danawa: http://www.danawa.com/elec/prod_list/?defSite=DISPLAY&cate_c1=149&cate_c2=180&cate_c3=0&cate_c4=0&display=display (some at the bottom of the page)

CRT is still a great technology (IMHO) and HD will still look good. I prefer my LCD just 'cause it saves so much space. I also don't think CRTs generally come out in widescreen format (16:9).

You can get a decent PAVV or Xcanvas LCD for around 700,000 KRW so if that's in your price range, I'd say go for that instead.

It was more for the better picture quality with CRT.

i have a full HD Vixlim (the Samsung CRT HD TV), and i like it, but one word of warning. in non-full screen mode, the sides can look a little warped. if you intend to watch everything in WS mode (which i do) and not toggle between the two viewing modes, then this is not a problem. otherwise, this is something you should be aware of.

Quite surprising how expensive they are.
