i really miss tomato soup. i live in a crappy officetel without even a proper kitchen, so i won't be able to make it myself. so do any of you kind folks know where i can buy a can of tomato soup (other than campbell's) in seoul? i've tried homeplus, emart, high street market in itaewon, and none of them seem to have any.

Ok so, If you don't have access to a kitchen, how are you going to eat the can of tomato soup you want people to recommend. Cold from the can? If you do have access to a kitchen and tomatoes, it's pretty easy to make your own soup. If you have access to a kitchen or not, what exactly is wrong with Campbell's tomato soup - the. only Western brand I've ever seen in shops over here? Are you some kind of cold tomato soup from a can snob?

never seen anything other than Campbells

I've made this a few times, it turns out really good and is super easy to make. Everything can be purchased at even the smallest grocery store in Korea, minus maybe the tomato paste which you would need to go to a big emart/homeplus/department store for.
