I've never been to the High Street Market, but the link I included has directions, if you click on his previous link.

I always liked him (Dandy's Grocery) better anyway. Plus, he's expanded a little bit since they closed.

He added it in the comments after I asked:
It's located next door to the Imperial Palace Boutique Hotel (head out of Itaewon station past the defunct Hard Rock Cafe, La Tavola, Helios, Macaroni Market and Spazio Luce, it'll be on your left opposite the Cheil building).

How about the black market in Sinchon? It is near the department store, in front of the little park. There is also an underground path that supposedly has many markets, never been though.

I love Cookie - I know of two locations (Jeongja and Suji). They have a large selection of foreign goods.

Namdaemun Market - Best place to find alcohol, in my opinion. Especially the harder to find labels. Has many food stuffs as well.
