This is one of my favorite places in Seoul, If it's has to do with electronics they have it here. There is also a Hooters in this area! The Cache is located in the Flea Market area of the Electronics Market. It's a Flat Magnetic Micro Cache.
Yongsan Electronics Market is a retail area in Seoul, South Korea, comprising over 20 buildings housing 5,000 stores that sell appliances, stereos, computers and peripherals, office equipment, telephones, lighting equipment, electronic games and software, videos and CDs. A variety of electronic components for constructing computers and other items can also be found. Korean-made products generally cost 20% less in this location than other retail outlets, while imported items can be as much as 50% cheaper.
The market has a variety of stores, each with different operating procedures. Some stores operate like traditional retail shops, with set prices, name brands, and warranties. Other shops accept, or even expect, customers to bargain and may not have any posted prices for items.
The Electronics Market is located on Subway line 1, at Yongsan Station. One should walk through the train station to enter through the Terminal Shopping Center or walk around the station at ground level to enter the market. The major stores are open from 10:00 am to 8:00 pm, while many smaller stores keep a variety of hours. Most stores in the area are closed on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of every month. The department stores and many shops in Seoul are closed on Mondays
YONGSAN ELECTRONICS MARKET: This area is very big, and has major bargains for all kinds of electronics. Take the subway Line # 1 to Yongsan metro station. You can also take the subway line # 4 to Sinyongsan station. Yongsan Station is located above, and Sinyongsan Station is located below ground. There are many signs pointing to the electronics mart, but they are all in Korean. To get to the electronics mart, look for one of the yellow signs with the phrase ? ? ? ? (jun ja song ga, "Electronics Mart"). It will direct you to a pedestrian skyway that enters the Terminal Electronics Mart (? ? ? ? ? ? ?) on the third floor. If in doubt, follow the crowd, most people are going to or coming from the mart.
The electronics mart is not a single entity, but a large complex of thousands of independent shops. There is an outdoor flea market in the area on the first and third Sunday of the month, when things are even cheaper. The shops open around 11 AM. Be warned, the area is not that easy to navigate through.
