I've heard there is a Apple shop/service center somewhere in Yongsan and COEX.
Directions would be nice

Coex- Go outside and stand with your back to the Casino. Look across the street, there's a Cafe Ediya. Take the small side street on the left of it, go down that street maybe 100 yards. Look for a "UBASE" sign on the buildings on the left side of the street. It's on the 3rd floor above a restaurant. The building is gray |

I second the ebay recommendation. You can find one for probably $6 that ships for free from China, and installing it yourself is the simplest thing.
Do NOT let Apple sucker you into paying the $50 or so that they charge for a new battery. |

I've been to the place mentioned by the poster above. Those directions are good.
They replaced my battery and I got my iPod back within a week. |

Just curious, how long did your battery last? I don't use my nano every day, but I do watch videos about 1 hour every other day when I'm on the subways...just wondering how long these batteries last. |

I am curious too. My Ipod is hitting its second year. How much was the battery and installation?  |

I've been told it's between 70,000 - 90,000 won depending on the Apple affiliated dealer. They may replace the entire ipod as well.
Just use Ebay, very cheap and easy. |
