Is there anywhere in Seoul to get Halloween decorations and/or costumes?

Thanks,

Namdaemun Market or www.gmarket.co.kr.

Sadang station, exit 14. Walk straight out down the street. There will be a wall along the left side of the sidewalk. Keep going until you reach a three-way intersection with a hospital on one of the corners. Turn left. Take the first right down a sidestreet. Halloween is about 30m ahead on your right. Orange sign, in the basement.

It's a costume warehouse. Open until 4pm.

The store in Sadang looks perfect.

I see from the website that in addition to costumes, they also have many decorations/props - these things are available in the physical store & not just the website, right?

In Apgujeong, just up the street "All Day Brunch", across from the big Lotte Department Store. There's a small-ish shop. It's mostly sized for kids though.

Dongdaemun has a Halloween market area near Exit 4 of Dongdaemun Station (line 1).

Thanks,

I ended up visiting the Halloween store in Sadang - it was a great one-stop-shop for both costumes & decorations.

To give perspective - Think similar Halloween selection to a Wal*Mart in the US, but with more costumes (and many higher-quality rental costumes). The selection of decorations/props seemed similar to a US Wal*Mart

They're only open until 4pm on Saturday & Sunday though (closed weekdays).
