 |
|
I've traveled quite a bit and love a good tshirt I get from a foreign country, whether it's a beer brand or something to that effect. I haven't seen a shop or place selling anything like that here, all I've really seen is knock off MLB/NBA tshirts which look a little ridiculous.
Do they have them anywhere?
Also, what about custom tshirts where you can get them to write whatever you want in Hangul? Gotta be something that would be a good souvenir for a friend or something for yourself? |

Be interested in knowing myself.. I think I've read before you can do it in Dongdaemun, but...Dongdaemun is big  If anyone has specific info / directions, that would certainly be helpful^^
Babo t-shirts is a nice idea, but the colors and designs lack a bit, esp. for girls imho. And it's not very cheap for what you get- I've done it in China before for 60 kuai... |

That's $8.80. Babo shirts are $10. Not that big of a difference.*
I am not affiliated with Babo in anyway (other than posting babo thoughts on the internet once in awhile). |

Ugh... those babo shirts scream tool. Does anyone actually think they're funny? Gimmick clothing 
OP: What exactly are you looking for? Shirts that have Korean palaces and stuff on them? |

The "I'm NOT Chinese" T-shirt is pretty funny; for a Caucasian. If I were to buy any, it would have been that one. |

True, though the ones I looked at were mostly $18... But it's just that many of them look very 'home-made', a very simple t-shirt with some letters on it... It would be cool to be able to make your own design with whatever text you like and print it on more 'expensive' looking clothing. I'm not really a t-shirt wearing kind of gal^^ |

My coworker told me there's all these shops in Itaewon or other places which will make custom shirts for you. Supposedly the shop owners speak good english, and you can bring in a shirt or hat and they will stitch on or imprint whatever you want. Couldn't tell me where and they are an idiot so I don't know what to believe.
Anything related to cool tshirts, I'd be interested in. |

I see that they don't provide custom shirts yet.
I'll wait so I can have one printed saying,
"Thank you for not speaking to me in English."
Correct me if there are any mistakes, but I would have that printed as:
저에게 영어로 말하지 않았서 갑사합니다. |

| Those shirts are only cool if you're NOT in Korea. Walking around with a shirt that says "JJANG" in Korea is only good for irony purposes. |

이렇게 하면 나을 것 같아요

| During the NIKE "Just Do it" campaign I saw 2 attractive ladies with T-shirts that said "Just Do Me" on them. I almost walked up to them & said, "OK." They were different design shirts on different days, not 2 girls together. |

Just go down any of the little alleys on the same side of the street as the International Arcade & hunt until you see the shops making NFL, NBA MLB, NASCAR & all other knockoffs & you can get any shirt you want. |
