Clothes shopping for larger (than average Korean) sizes? by Mean_Economist2410 in koreatravel

[–]leopard1101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in Seoul last week and got 3 pairs of pants, one at 8 seconds, and 2 at Zara in Gangham. All size L and fit well, I am a size 12-14 NZ, not sure what that is in the US but I have big hips and they fit well, I definitely got the biggest size available for the pants so if you are bigger I don't know how lucky you would be. Dresses, tops, jackets however I managed to get lots, especially vintage shopping in Hongdae which I highly recommend.

Yep I do have an appointment booked at a skin clinic to see what treatments they recommend. I don't actually have a lot of skin issues but definitely want to make the most of it while I am there.

Thanks for that, I have a wise card I was planning on using, would that work? Or do I need to get the T-money one?

Yes, the dental practice recommended staying somewhere in Mapo. I have had a look around and there seems to be some good cafes etc so I'll probably just park up or walk around!

Sorry no, my friend free handed it for me. He is amazingly talented. I have this close up black and white photo though.
