Is there a Korean equivalent of Ikea? I would like to buy an desk and good office chair. I have asked a number of people, but they all acquire things on the cheap or dumpster dive.

How about an equivalent of Amazon.com? It would be great if there was an English option on the site.

http://www.iikea.co.kr/

It's a Korean site, so you might need a friend to navigate if you can't read/understand Korean well. Prices are inflated from the "real" Ikea.

Thanks! I looked on the Ikea website, and Korea wasn't listed.

Anybody know a good online retailer other than gmarket?

Thank you, there is some interesting stuff on the site. The current state of my apartment leaves a lot of room for improvement.
