No keycaps from Korea, unless you take the cream cheese into account, which just concluded the group buy.
Otherwise you can contact david kant from Iomania and see if he wants to sell the cream cheese separately at $50 a set when you buy it together with the TypeNow Solid.

Unfortunately, going straight to Korea to buy keyboards is rather pointless. Unless you have joined some group buy where they are making custom keyboards, it's not gonna help your case.

Alright i'll look up the cream cheese thingamajig. That buying from korea thing is nothing to me, just heard that ppl going there for holiday so maybe just help frens to buy the keyboards for them from there. Heard they're IT guys, but i don't know whether they know that this thread/sort of group and conducting group buys exists. I'm just some 3rd party guy who wants to chip in money so they can help me tongue.gif Nonetheless, thanks for helping. Might just wait and see if this thread has any group buys or not. icon_rolleyes.gif

Korea isn't much known for the replacement keycaps(though, once in a time, they will have some, but you need a good/fast news and luck to land your hand on it). They are more known for custom stuffs like special PCB, casing, and a lot other misc and even custom keyboard(KMAC, Cheat, Phantom and lots more).
If you want to look for keycaps, you should look for it from US, China or Taiwan.
Known sites include Inpad/global.PChome/Armygroup for Taiwan, taobao for China and WASDkeyboard/SignaturePlastic(custom order, wait for group buy at geekhack) for US.

Earlier i thought Korea has the same stuff too, but o well. Might as well hang around geekhack and look for more good stuff.

BTW, may be you can ask your friend to help you get some Korea only keyboard instead? Such as:
Leopold FC700R(not sure if older batch still having stock or not)
Milestone(CM Storm's rebrand, but with much less overbranding on it)

FC700R? I thought Cyclone bro didn't brought it in?

If not mistaken i remember he only brought in FC200R AND FC500R. I didn't know there was a 700R. Must be godly.
