Save Your Money
Daiso is amazing. It has almost everything you need to live your daily life for less than 5,000 won. This is how most of us survive in Korea as ex-pats. The best part is that things are as cute as they are cheap so you feel like you are winning from every angle. Before you shop for things like yoga mats, pots and pans, and office supplies anywhere else – go here first.
Important note: Military members and families take note. The prices are far cheaper than what can be purchased on base with comparable quality.
