Yongsan Electronics Market

Itaewon & Yongsan-gu


Korea isn't a particularly cheap country in which to pick up electronics (even for home-grown brands like Samsung), but this humongous collection of tech sellers might still appeal if you're on the hunt for a high-end gaming laptop or secondhand camera.
