I don't know where to find them in Seoul, but I picked up a pair of Phillips earphones with a mic and they sound great. The model number is SHM (something). They were only 20,000won, so I bought them as a test, strictly for my iTouch apps like Skype and Midomi.
If I can find them in Daegu, they must be a any computer peripherals store in Seoul.

Well, I sprung for a very pricey 95,000 won model of Apple headphones that are in-ear with mic. Apple seems to have at least 2 models. The cheapest were 35,000 won, and are comparable to the free ones they give you with your i-pod. Those don't fit well in my ear.

Oh well... these wrap up nice, and sound OK. I prefer my far cheaper Sonys for bass, though.

Yeah those in-ear phones are alright for Skype, but for music, as you said, there's no bass.
