Shopping in Seoul: Seoul has developed commerce. From traditional old-fashioned markets to modern department stores and duty-free shops, a variety of shopping venues can meet almost any need of various tourists; and goods can be customized quickly and conveniently in South Korea.

Introduction to the old-fashioned market: The old-fashioned market refers to a market that retains the appearance of a traditional Korean market.

Usually it is not in a modern building, but in a short one-story building or in a pushcart with goods for sale.

Reason for recommendation: When people come to this kind of market for shopping, people not only enjoy shopping here, but also can eat all kinds of snacks at will, which makes them have a lot of fun while wandering around.

Reminder: Foreign currency is usually not accepted at this kind of market, so it’s best to have Korean won ready in advance.

Recommended places: Namdaemun Market, Dongdaemun Market, Insa-dong, Hwanghak-dong Flea Market, Jingdong Yangnyeong Market Department Store Introduction: South Korea’s department stores are mostly concentrated in the most expensive shopping malls in South Korea, so product prices are naturally very expensive.

However, there is usually an affordable treat event held each season.

During the reward period, you can easily buy things you would like to buy but cannot afford because of the high price.

Reminder: There are also many Koreans who come to the department store to shop during the wedding period, so it seems very crowded.

Recommended places: Apoojeong-dong, Myeongdong, Mungyeong-dong Discount Street, Itaewon Duty Free Shop Introduction: In Seoul, duty-free goods are generally sold in first-class hotels and independent duty-free shops in the city.

In addition, there are specialized duty-free shops selling diamonds, jewelry, etc., and there is also a Korea Tourism Organization duty-free shop in the airport where you can purchase goods directly.

Reason for recommendation: The most economical and affordable shopping method.

Reminder: Duty-free shops adopt a "no-price" system, but you can use credit cards, cash and traveler's checks to make purchases.

Customized goods It is easy to order goods in Seoul. For example, you can order a desired set of hanbok, shorts, and long skirts at a Korean clothing store in Dongdaemun Market. It only costs 150,000 to 250,000 won for fabrics and 60,000 for handwork.

Ten thousand won is enough.

Leather jackets, leather skirts, etc. can be customized in Itaewon. Customers can choose the leather they like and customize the style they like.

Customized leather boots and shoes can also be freely selected in style.

Customizing a silk shirt, including the fabric, only costs about 30,000 to 100,000 won.

It usually takes 2 to 7 days to complete the finished product, which varies slightly from store to store. The decision depends on the traveler's schedule in Korea.

You can also order accessories and men's suits in Myeongdong, which are cheap but exquisitely handmade.

In Korea, the most popular gift is a seal carved from wood or stone. If it is carved in Korean, it can be used as a souvenir of your visit to Korea.
