쇠고기, 돼지고기, 그리고 닭고기

I also recommend the duck.

I know some people have an issue with mock meat and religious sects, but the Loving Hut in Sinchon, Gangnam and some other areas carries vegan protein. I think you can also get stuff from http://www.vegefood.co.kr/ if your Hangul is up to par.

If that's not your thing, I know some people have mentioned www.iherb.com for delivery from a California warehouse (I believe).

Good luck...or Good duck
Ask other veg groups in Seoul. Meetup.com??? good luck

Not sure what specific product you are searching for, but Japanese chlorella and spirulina is at Namdaemun imported foods and its cheaper there than it is in Japan.

Loving Huts are all around, and often have different types of fake meat (all shops carry different things, so it's a gamble). Also, don't forget the many different kinds of tofu, not to mention peanut butter.

And I'm pretty sure the goal is to NOT have meat in one's mouth.

I'm fairly certain that sperm is never technically alive. And since no living thing was harmed in its production (quite the opposite actually) consuming it shouldn't go against vegan ideals.

I'll second the recommendation for www.iherb.com

They ship an amazing selection of health products-dry foods, bath products, vitamins, cosmetics etc.. for $4USD to Korea.

If you enter this code UQU030 on your order you'll get a $5discount (new customers) and I'll get some bonus points! Very Happy

You can order hemp protein powder. Tastes like turd, but I know some vegan bodybuilders that use it.

But don't discount plant protein. There's enough there if you just enough plants. Don't believe me, go ask a race horse.
