You can find just about anything at markets in Seoul. There are tons of markets to choose from with each specializing in a certain area while offering all the usual products that you expect to find at a market. The prices at markets are cheaper than supermarkets and shopping centres and if your bargaining skills are good you may be able to pick something up at a steal.
Tip: While looking around markets and shops, look out for shops with the sign “Tax Free Shopping”. This will allow people visiting Korea with a tourist visa to receive 70-80% of the vat back on products that cost 30,000 won or more.
