I have a total block on this...where in Korea do I go to buy specialty batteries? I'm looking for one with the number 392 on it. I guess it's supposed to be a watch battery?

Try a watch store. Not sure if they have them in Seoul, but in Busan there are little stalls tucked in stairwells in subway exits that sell watches and batteries.
Will probably cost 3000W

Cool, thanks. It wasn't in a watch, so I had a blank on it. No watch stores in my neighborhood...

Bring whatever needs the battery to any sales desk selling keys and locks. The usually also do watches and batteries. Maybe a local Emart or similar.
