i'm not looking for boxes
but the tubes to send documents.
i have not seen any in korea.
in post office or stationary stores.
do they exist here in korea at all?
I'm looking for them specifically in the Bundang area.
but if I can find it around Seoul it would be just as good.

I bought one last year, in a stationery/random crap shop, in a rural town. They weren't on display, and I had to go through a whole charade of getting big sheets of handmade paper, rolling them up and then putting them in an imaginary tube. The woman (eventually!) understood, and fossicked around out the back of the shop and came back with a box of various sized plastic tubes. They were expandable lengthways, and had carrying straps, but I guess you could tape over any unwanted bits to post them.
Good luck.

I would think Fedex and/or Kinkos would have them. I would think art shops or studios would have them as well, but hey, I've never looked either.

FedEx has triangular mailing tubes that fold flat. You could probably make your own from flat cardboard. -Jeff

Keep looking in stationery stores. Especially CNA, or any one near a university gate. They are black plastic and expandable, with red locking rings around them.

Whenever I have tried to make my own triangular-style mailers from cardboard, I did a terrible job.
