It costs 4,000 won and it's not bad. There's only one variety. It's a meat calzone with cheese, onions, and some peppers. Try it the next time you are Costco.

I just moved. So how do I get to the one near Yeongdongpo?

I found a map here: http://www.costco.co.kr/eng/whs_850.htm but none of the landmarks on it show up on any of the other map searches that I've done. I would greatly appreciate some help.

By subway and foot--Yeongdongpogu Office Station exit 3, I believe, (Near the Pension Office) do a u-turn from the subway and take the first right. Go straight for a few hundred meters, eventually you will get to it.

Thanks sojusucks!

I was in a Costco in the U.S. last week. Night and day with the food choices. So, so many that after being in Korea it makes it hard to choose.

You make the right turn just past KB Bank. If you get out of the subway station and aren't sure where to go you can always hop in a cab and say "Costco" and it's a 2,400 won cab ride.

To get a Costco membership all you need to do is show your ARC and pay the yearly membership fee. They'll take your picture and issue you the card in a few minutes. If you need bags you can always buy large Costco shopping bags at the store. They are near the checkout stands in large boxes.

You can get one bag for free after you sign up for your membership. I think they give you a choice of a bag, a hot dog set, or 20 photo prints.

One more thing to mention- you can use the card twice a day. If you bring friends they can shop with you but it all gets ringed up with your card and you still have a twice a day limit on card use.

Yeah like sojusucks said look for the KB at exit 3 and just go down that street.
You'll see a huge green screen golf net. Just go to it and you'll see Costco across the street (400m from the subway.)

Even if you are shopping for a few things you'd better grab a shopping cart. Costco items are very big.
