Brick and mortar stores to check out in South Korea

Hello! I was wondering if anyone had recommendations for some brick and mortar stores to check out while I'm in South Korea for a couple weeks. The kicker is that I'll be in Seoul for only 2-3 days, and the rest of my time will be down in Gwangju. There's a tiny possibility I may be in Busan too for a day. I'm not super familiar myself with Korean brands or any stockists that would be in South Korea.

Looks like Document and Frizmworks both have brick and mortars in Seoul.

Nice! I've seen their stuff online before, it'd be dope to actually see it in person, maybe try some things on (honestly would be nice to be able to do that with any brand considering where I'm currently located 🥲 )

Omnipeople is supposed to be a good vintage store in Seoul

If you have the time I'd recommend here & just walking around the area, there's lots of nice, smaller vintage and clothing shops & cafes https://itsyourshopvous.com/shopinfo/about.html?cate_no=26

With Busan, I'd go around Busan University; the surrounding area is like a university town with 5, 6 nice vintage shops

Yep, also if you use IG a lot of vintage stores are active on there so maybe if you just search up 'gwangju vintage' there you'll find something Not super familiar with the area beyond that unfort

All these recommendations are for Seoul btw: Sculp Store stocks a lot of Japanese-Americana type stuff (Nepenthes, Kapital, Visvim), cool place to check out. San Francisco Market leans a little more classic, lots of cool stuff. Drakes has a brick and mortar in Seoul (only one outside of london/ny), Ecru's a cool little boutique for more steet wear leaning stuff (Undercover, WTAPS, etc). There were a lot of great second hand shops all around like apgujeongdong and seongsudong that I unfortunately didn't mark down so I'd recommend just taking a stroll and checking out whatever! can vouch for this, probably the best vintage american apparel store ive ever been anywhere. they literally had stacks of rl polo bear and american flag sweaters sitting on their chairs lol
