| I've been watching some YouTube stuff about distilled water and want to try it for 3 weeks. Any idea where honest distilled water can be regularly purchased? Or, any recommendations for setting up a DIY method? |

Ask for '멸균증류수' (meaning 'sterilized distilled water') at pharmacies near you. Be careful though, it's not that widely distributed, and some pharmacists may insist giving you '정제수' ('purified water', hence NOT 'distilled') instead. Read its Korean label carefully and stick with the former.
It'll probably come in 1-liter bottles, cleared for irrigation but not for intravenous injection. Distilled water used for injections requires doctor's prescriptions, which is distributed in ampules instead of plastic bottles. |

No dice at either of my two local pharmacies.  |
