What are some good cheap Korean cigerettes? What do you guys usually smoke?

The other day some of my students became very concerned when they saw me smoking Malboros. They couldn't quite express what they meant, but after using a pocket translator informed me that American cigarettes will "induce" lung cancer. Korean cigarettes apparently don't do this. Like with every other problem, lung cancer is all the fault of those bloody foreigners. So I'd recommend This (or This Zin if you need something stronger). Esse or One is fine if you want something really weak.

A good strong cigarette is Dunhill Light, in the red package. Marlboros here are different than in the US.

88 Lights. I smoked 'em for about five years before cutting back a bit on nicotine and changed to Time Lights. The 88(pal-pal) lights are pretty cheap, probably cheaper than all but Sol. Being from Canada, where I used to smoke DuMurier Kings, the 88's seemed to go down nicely.

Eh?!

Even foreign cigarettes are only 2500 won. You want cheaper than that? Fine. Smoke cheap Korean cigarettes and taste that full rich flavour!!!

It really is worth coughing up (hehe) another 500 won for some decent Dunhills or Marlboro.

I have a friend who found some Pyongyang cigarettes in Dongdaemoon. They're a lot stronger than Korean cigarettes, and they were cheaper than christ.

OP,

'This' or 'This Plus'.

Switched from This to Mild Seven super lights a while back.

I smoke "Cima". They're the "CEO's Choice"

Tried "This Plus" in the begining, but didn't like them. Don't like "Dunhill" much either. Definitely don't like "Marlboro".

I smoked "DuMaurier Regular" in Canada. How I miss those (but not the price). Haven't had one of those for almost three years.

Smokes are 2500 Won. Anything lower than that is crap.

I'm a menthol fan: Dunhil Frost or Raison green

[deessell]

I changed from Marlboro Lights to the grandfather ciggie....Dolagi. It's better for my pocket and health(they are considered herbal) Also I find that my officetel doesn't smell so much of stale cigarette smoke.

I quit 2 months ago, but I used to smoke Dunhill Lights then switched to Mild Seven lights. I quit of course when students informed me that smoking Japanese cigarettes would render me impotent and shorten my dick. Like that's possible

Time Menthols come with Korean language lessons on the cover. I can never remember the lessons tho.
