Just wondering if anyone knows where I can find a good dart supply store here. I know they sell dart stuff at a lot of bars, but I'm looking for a bigger place with more of a selection and where I can buy a dartboard too. Anybody know of one?

Forgot to mention. No online stores. I want to find a place where I can actually pick the darts up before I buy them.

You also forgot to mention if you're in Seoul, Busan, Pyongyang, Daegu or outer space. Wink

(other than in your Location bar: "duuuuuuuuuuh" Laughing

HALLA COMPANY, Tongil B/D 503 12, 2GA Chong Ro Chong Ro-Ku, Seoul, Korea : 02 739-1234

ya never know,...pool and darts go hand in hand, AND maybe they have someone there who just happens to know.


I know it's online, but call the customer center and maybe you can go see (?) http://www.dartsshop.kr/bemarket/shop/


Also, I remember in another thread a bar was mentioned by 'bibbitybop.'

Al Jourgensen is right...location helps.

But, I happen to know of people who've gotten a free used dart board from the Blue Frog in Itaewon. Not in bad shape either...they have leagues so they change the boards often. Just saying.

Actually the "duuuuh" was for me after I posted and saw the Op's location Laughing

anyways, there is the SIDL. Contact them if necessary, they'd know.

Doesn't exactly fit what you want but I swear by a-zdarts. They are on-line but their service is fast. Prices are very good (I bought a set of 90% tungstun darts that were priced at W160,000 for $22 from a-z).

a-z also has the very nice habit of throwing in free stuff with your order. My first order they essentially sent me enough free barrels, flights and shafts for 2 extra sets of darts).

All that being said I also love to find a physical store to visit.

Bulls Dart Bar in Hongdae won't have boards, only darts.

You will have to order from the Korean dart shop online (unless they have a physical store) or from overseas.

YES! They have the protective "ring" for the dartboard, no backboard needed.

whaaaaat? What's a protective ring? All I can think of is nuvaring.

In all seriousness, please elaborate about this thing. It sounds magical. Been trying to sort out a protective backboard thing so as to not make our house ajumma angry. We don't want to ruin the previous mdf she sided out flat with.

oopsy, as an edit: Can you suggest any sort of backing? We're stumped.
