They have very nice seeweed. I also see people lugging back boxes of their instant noodles. And if you are after skincare products produced in Korea, you can get them too! If you are visiting the factory outlet, you can get Lego toys at a much lower prices as well.

HI, also looking to go Korea. Main focus: ski trip and theme parks with as little traveling around as possible. Have gone through some itinerary, and narrowed to Chan Brother and Five Stars. Quite like the itinerary from Five Stars, but not too sure about the quality of food and accommodation. Anybody has any feedback on the agency? Or any other recommended agency?
