"Take a trip to Hyawha in Seoul walk through the Pinoy market"

Fishhead soup wrote this on the travel forum. Does anyone know where this is?

From a google search:

Quote:
Little Manilla, Filipino Market place.
There are many Filipino migrant workers in Seoul. The demand for typical Filipino products lead to a market place where Filipino's gather, it is only open on Sunday. They located this market close to the only church where the mass is 'Tagalog' (one of the many Filipino languages). If you want to experience little Manilla to buy cheap telephone cards, vcd's, dvd's or food, take Subway Line No. 4 to Hyehwa Station. Come out of Exit No.1 and walk toward the end of the street. The market is formed along the Hyewha Rotary, from Dongseong High School to the entrance of Hyehwa-dong Catholic Church.

There is also a general store specializing in Philippine stuff (mostly food) in an Itaewon alley. I haven't been there in a long time so I'm not sure if it's still there, but if you want to see if it is, go to Hahn's Tailor and make a right going down the hill. As soon as you see the alley on the left, go into it and keep going until you see the store.
