Anyone know where there is an import shop (black market) there? The kinda store that sells snacks and goods from back home.
Thanks in advance. |

I haven't seen one in yongton..but there is one in nammun near the market area. You could also take the subway to songtan station and take the taxi to the front gate of osan air base. (2000w) Lots of stores there with american goods...but a bit pricey. What things are you looking for? |

Yes, it is out the side door of Home Plus going toward the pedway over pass stairs. It has a red sign (I forgot the name) and is across the street from the BYC that is in the back of he same building as Pizza hut.
In the front window it looks like a high end gift / houseware shop. The western stuff is in the back next to the cash counter.
It is about 6 doors down from the corner (going away from home plus). |

Nope... selection varies depending on who bought how much of what yesterday.
Some days it is very good (like the day after his trip to the commisary on base).
Some days it's not so good (like the day before he goes shopping at the commisary). |
