My husband's oboe has a number of problems. Where could he go in Seoul to get it repaired?

I remember seeing a couple of instrument shops in Insadong under the bridge/building...

The big blue bridge building near Insadong that was mentioned is Nakwon musical instrument market... Go in there and check around. The place is very big and has 2 levels... Also there are allot of classical type musical instrument shops around the Seoul Arts Center south of the river... There are back streets with shops selling woodwinds, brass, strings... etc.

if you go to seocho, there are a couple of more professional instrument shops. They will probably cost more than teh insadong ones, but be more professional. They on the main street, if you are walking from teh seocho subway station to the big art center. The biggest one was Kawaii (or something like that, with a K) piano, who do pianos on the first floor but have other instruments on the second floor.
