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!  |

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. |
