I went to Universal travellers and WinterTime Sunway Pyramid last weekend and I can tell you their winter jackets were all China made but price it RM300+/-. Glove selling at RM49. I bought in china RM10 nia can use liau.
Thank you for the info.
Is better to keep warm than sorry. After catching cold no more fun liao. Wasted more money than just the price of down jacket.
But huiyin, whats is the pricing of down jacket in Busan ? 
That's my priority. The tree background is so very the famous.  I must take the 12 mega pixels picture ( the highest pixel setting of my digital camera) with me and my GF riding a bicycle, then come back print it out big big and frame it up on the wall.  My GF will sure drop death sayang me liao wub.gif  wub.gif
Note: I've never watch Winter Sonata the drama.

don't know much about these hotels but .. i really think itaewon is a waste of time ._.
like what my friend said, its a place where foreigners cheat other foreigners..


Added on November 2, 2010, 11:20 pmbtw, i really recommend innostels .. smile.gif and they did have a problem with people below the age of 21.. i don't know why, coz the first time i tried back last christmas they wouldn't allow me to stay and the 2nd time i went, last march i think, they were more lenient :s i don't remember which one i stayed but i was in Jongno-3ga.. plus, some of them can converse in english/korean/jap/chinese.. so ok lah smile.gif

thanks for the specific link...
It is in fact very informative.

So, although South Korea is manufacture of main brand in the world, but still
buying any goods directly from South Korea is not recommended for the reason of warranty, voltage frequency, pre-installed software and etc.

speaking of voltage...can our adapters work over there? i googled and this is the pic of their pins. hmm.gif

QUOTE(nejin @ Nov 4 2010, 04:39 PM)
actually there are many things dat u can buy overthere...hehe
the survenir is a must i think...u can buy at Insadong (but the price is sligthly expensive)
korea is heaven for shoppers i think...because u can find a  lots lots of latest fashion...
if u are SNSD fans just like me...when u go to myeongdong don't forget to go to SPAO level 4 for
official merchandise..i bought Fanny phone strap at 12,900w = RM36.00; mouse pad 7000, and my fren also
request me to buy them SUJU SPAO tshirt for the next concert hehe...well it's really worth it...i spend almost 200000w at SPAO only...

as for me, i spend around RM1.5k for shopping only...hehe
*
hahaha...but i will be going next week..so its close to winter...i don't think those fashion is suitable in malaysia i guess. hmm.gif

noted for the SNSD merchandise. thanks. biggrin.gif maybe buy yoona or seohyun punya. blush.gif SPAO is the name of a shop? blush.gif

ooo..so if a girl can spend 1.5k..i guess i can live with 800? laugh.gif
