  1. Quick note Michaels is in Sincheon not Sinchon. Opposite sides of the city.

    2. I would normally suggest supporting your local store if you can but there is such a large price difference that I can understand why people order from overseas.

      There are also a lot of people that order from overseas because they have to. Non type 2 singles, Modern Masters, Commander decks etc. These are all things that are annoying/impossible to get.
      Combined with the fact large areas of Korea don't have a store. The entire city of Suwon and the south of Gyeonggi-do is serviced by one store that no longer sells singles it is not hard to see why people are importing.

    3. You can buy Korean cards from a Korean.
      I will participate in the draft this weekend.
      Ask me any card. I can manage it in a week.

  4. Hi, cool blog. I wondered if you knew if any of these stores sold Yugioh cards/structures/boosters? I moved to Korea a few months back and information on this is thin on the ground. I know this site is for Magic, but any information would be useful. Especially for the stores/places in Busan as I am in the south of the country. Thanks

  5. Some of the stores are more Yugioh than Magic and Yugioh is generally more popular here, I don't have any personal info on Busan though.

    A place like "Duel Zone" sounds like it would be more of a Yugioh shop, but I put there info up there years ago so I am not sure if it's still relevant.

      I would be interested in any details on A+. I haven't been able to find anything.
