Has anyone seen a place that carries a large selection of acrylic colors?

The Alpha store in Namdaemeun market in Seoul has the best selection of artist supplies that I have seen. It has 4 floors and is very close to city hall.

There's a pretty big (though likely not as big as the one at Namdaemun) art store underneath the Lotteria at Express Bus Terminal (over the road from Shinsegae), and there are small art stores dotted along a road near Hongik Uni...I've not been in those, though, so am not exactly sure what kind of selection they have.

There are a number of Alpha stores scattered around the city, but, as pointed out already, the Namdaemun Alpha does have the best selection. There are also quite a few independent art supply shops and framing shops near the Samgakji station. These are easy to find as they will usually have easels spilling out onto the sidewalk.
