Carrefour, Walmart etc. etc. all sell those things.. well may be not deodrant. If you are in Seoul, go to Hannam Market - they will definitely sell. Or the Red Door or the Door with the red brim in Itaewon. They sell deodrant too. But other things like razor and after shave (gillette) can be found in the supermarket.

Razors with disposable blades are pretty commonly available- better for your face and the environment too.

Aftershave- buy something that smells good from the department store- girls dig it.

Deodorant- try the Red Door in Itaewon. Turn off Itaewon's main street at Burger King, walk about 300 ms an it's on your left. The window frame is red not the door, and the blinds are always closed but it's open. It's across the street from an ugly mint green buildiing too.

You'd think that, but my local Homeplus has started giving away a free razor with every 8-set of my brand of blades Shocked

I've got about six of them now!
