Yongsan ET-Land.


Whatever you do, DO NOT purchase from an LG or Samsung botique store. I got pulled in on a "sale" and got burned bad. I expected better service, and received the same service I would have had I purchased it off of the internet, for the most part. When I tried to exchange a problematic TV, the store refused to give my money back, and would not let me exchange for a competitors product.... if I had bought elsewhere, I could have done that.

I bought mine at the local E-mart. You can be sure that there is a proper warranty and, of course, they aren't a fly-by-night company. They have some good sales. Go and check the different ***-marts, they are quite competitive. Also, I quoted the internet prices and they were willing to bargain with me.

Free delivery, no hidden charges (you will have to pay for any mounting), nice service.

Yongsan station in Seoul. That is not actually ET-Land, though. ET-Land is another building maybe 500m or more from it?

Here is Google Earth of ET-Land:
