I have an old phone but no battery charger. do current stores keep those in stock for old phones for some odd reason?

If not, how could I go about picking one up?

They sell old chargers in the underground walkway that runs east from Tongdaemun as well as in Tongdaemun in the flea market area.

Its an LG ki-coco (not sure on that spelling). - very small phone created about 5 years ago and taken out of production around 3 years ago.

I went to Dongdaemun for a few hours wandering aimlessly but didn't stumble upon any. I later went to about a half-dozen LG stores which laughed at how old the phone was Evil or Very Mad

I am sure you will find a charger in a dead-tech bin ...
If you find one I would grab some extra batteries as well ...

A bin full of dead tech ...

A (container) full of (out of date) technology ...

at Yongsan, and even Technomart they have a lot of used old stuff ...

-Discontinued technology
-Out of Production Technology



Thus "dead"

Deadware : Out of date software

If all else fails, they will generally recharge it for you at the shops.
