Has anyone bought anything from the Walmart in Japan online to ship here to Korea?

No. With the strong Yen, it might not be very affordable. Korean customs are douche-bags too.

Maybe I'll check it out sometime.

Both Wal-mart Japan and China don't ship nor do online sales as far as I know; just informational sites. Wal-Mart Canada doesn't sell online either. Wal-Mart doesn't go by Wal-mart in Japan. It's the Seiyu! And Wal-Mart USA won't ship overseas unless it's an APO address which only soldiers and their families have. You can't get an APO. I understand years ago, US embassies offered mail services to Americans living abroad, but that stopped in the 1990's with Bill Clinton's cost cutter strategies.

Too bad we're outside of Wal-Mart market. Many other retailers like Macy's and Polo won't deliver either unless it's an APO box. Looks like Amazon will deliver as well as Costco bringing us a few things.

They had Wal Mart here but it did terribly. There's always Ebay.
