Can anyone recommend a travel agency for this in Busan?

Kangsan is in Busan isn't it? 051-747-0031 www.kangsantravel.com

You can deal with pretty much any Korean travel agency by email. I recommend Soho Travel.

I tried with Kangsan, who told me they weren't sure on prices yet, but they said it would be around 800k which is ridiculous. I ended up buying mine from busan to bangkok dec 24 to jan 3 for 670k won, which is about as good as i've found.

I swear by these 3 travel agents:

The Yeogiyo
Xanadu
Soho Travel

I sent off an email to all of them and see who gets me the best price.

I second Soho Travel (though they're not Busan based)

I love Soho too. Mr. Jeong is so nice and always beats the competitors price. I went to Chiang Mai recently and it was about 450,000 KRW total.
Round-trip from Incheon.
Also, if you go to Thailand I have some Thai baht (cash) that I didn't have time to exchange. It's 2700 baht which according to today's exchange rate is equal to 94,000 won. I'm in Seoul if you want to exchange.

Kangsan always works for me.

Most recently, they got me to Thailand this month for 340 thou, all totalled 200-something before taxes/surcharge.

(Though the Christmas season sure is busy to Thailand.)

Of course, one can circumvent travel agents and use discount websites and save a few bucks.
