I want to get my students special candies and chocolates, different things, unusual ones, either with a Halloween theme or just very strange to them.

Where can I buy a lot of halloween candy and stuff?

Other interesting candy, chocolates, stuff for kids?

I want to make a long distance shopping trip from the island here up to Seoul or Busan or anywhere I could stock up for the halloween party.

Please let me know!

Carrefour in Daejeon has a selection. Not sure if other Carrefours do too?

What does "a selection" mean?

Is there enough variety or interesting stuff to warrant a three hour trip each way to get them?

Some specifics would be nice. I need to figure out where to go this weekend and just wanna make sure I'm not disappointed to find the same old, same old.

I was looking for some candy-canes to pass out last Christmas and was able to find some at Wal-Mart in Boo-sahn near some other Christmas junk they had on display there. Not sure about hallowe'en stuff though...

If all else fails there's a candy shop in COEX that carries different candy than what the kids would be used to year round- they might be stocking halloween candy now too but I don't know for sure.

Concos department store in Seoul Station has a small Hallowe'en stand stuck in a corner on the ground floor by L'Occitane and other make-up stands. I don't know what they have as I just saw the plastic jack o'lanterns from a distance and I don't celebrate it so didn't have a clase gander.
