In Flushing, Queens, NYC, USA, of course.

(What would it cost here?)

Quote:
If you have time to make it out to Queens, you�ll find more Korea than you could ever hope for. So many Koreans live in Flushing that the neighborhood supports three Han Ah Reum supermarkets � a k a H Marts � the locally based Korean chain where an eight-pound bucket of tofu goes for $4.99 (that�s either the best or worst buy in town, depending on how quickly you go through eight pounds of tofu). You�ll have no trouble finding places to eat and shop just wandering around: head toward Union Street near the 7 train�s Flushing stop.


An interesting article on Koreans in NYC:

There's a video, too.

I think this thread needs a more interesting title to get more hits (e.g. "Koreans in Noo Yok").
