Where to Find Bizarre South Korean Post Cards
by Richardson ~ February 13th, 2009. Filed under: South Korea.Last November I posted a few bizarre post cards a colleague picked up in Insadong. This week I’ve been in Seoul, and tracked down at least one of the shops that sell them.
Below are the distinctive signs marking the shop, which is located along the main Insadong street and Insadong 4 Gil (there is a green signpost):
The large black dot on the maps marks the approximate location:
The shop mostly has normal postcards and a few trinkets, but also specializes in super hero cards (e.g. Wonder Woman) and a few of the cards previously posted.

Thank you very much, Richardson. Now I can plan ahead for my shopping in Insadong during my spring vacation.

Heh! Have past by there dozens of times, never even noticed the crazy Wonder Woman place. Will have to go in next time, thanks!

Richardson: Thank you again for this information. I was in Insadong two weeks ago and stopped by the store and picked up a couple of postcards. Well worth the visit.
