I want a water filter.

Anyone selling one?

Anyone know where I can get one and how much I should expect to pay?

HI,
I think we bought a Britta in Emart fo about 40K with 1 8-week filter cartridge. More cartridges are about 30K for 3, if my memory hasn't entered senility.
Can't remeber exactly, but thats ballpark anyway.

BTW, fantastic water from it for everyday drinking and cooking.

Britas make your water taste better (or funnier depending on your opinion) but not safe.

Well to be perfectly honest I care more about the taste than the safety. They told me the water is safe, so I'll just believe it and hope it's true.

P.S.
The Brita sounds a bit pricey. Anything cheaper out there?

Don't believe "They" who told you tap water in Korea is safe. Shocked

"They" told me the water was safe when I first arrived to Korea....but I soon found out that it was the toilet that was safe to use....don't drink the tap water.
