I heard there was a building in Seoul that housed a lot of music stores. I am trying to buy an electric guitar and I want to find a place with a large variety. I walked around Nakwon but all I found were cruddy little shops that were either overpriced or lower quality. i am looking for the best place to buy a Japanese stratocaster or an Epiphone Les Paul. Can someone tell me the best place (with subway directions). I live in the provinces so I don't know Seoul all that well, though I can get around if I know where I am going. Thanks

The easiest way to get there is to take the subway to Jongno-3-ga. No matter what line you take you need to walk to the purple line (line 5) and make your way out of exit 4 or 5; they�re right next to each other. You should take the one with stairs, not the escalator. At the top of the stairs you�ll be on a street corner and an alley will be visible slightly off to your right. There�s a small sign pointing in the right direction that reads �Nagwon Arcade�, however there is no sign on the building. Once in the alley you will see a couple flights of stairs on your left side. Take them to the top and you�re in like Flynn.



It's a good place with good prices.
