Ok, I heard from someone else, somewhere else, that Eblins sells it, has a pink sign. Where might I find one somewhere north of the Han river?

lingerie sounds ok, but why don't you buy her something else too. maybe...it's just me, but lingeries always seem to be a selfish gift choice made by men.

I saw a bunch of lingerie stores in the ewha area, mundong, and dongdemun. good luck. of course, you can walk into any fancy dept store and find them, but those are usually so expensive.

do you have a credit card? my girl buys her stuff of victoria secret on the net. not just lengerie (sp) but other stuff too. or you could get her an on line credit with them and let her go crazy! one week delivery, but you have to pay tax on it.

I wouldn't recommend Vickies for a local girl. Korean brands scale their sizing, so what would be an A in North America is a B or so here. and that's just a risky mistake to make. ( do you wish my breast s were bigger? is that what this is about ?! Wink )

Honestly, can you see the giggling of the store clerk when he is looking at different pieces of lingerie. The sad thing is that they wouldnt be laughing cause they thought you were a drag queen. Quite the opposite...

Try near Shinchon exit 1 or 2? Or you could go to COEX (south of han)

On second thought. Vickies does sell these great satin robes lined with fleece. Sexy enough for you, comfy enough for her, tame enough that if her parents see it's okay, and hard to make a big mess up of the sizing. Might be perfect. I've had one for a few years and I love it.

Note- link is direct to the pic of the robe, should be work safe, but the rest of the site might be iffy. Wink

I think you should buy her a dinosaur dressed in lingerie...

A large T-Rex in a g-string and a bra would be a fine way to say "I love you."
