Just the other day, an article claimed that one just have to walk into any supermarket these days and there’s almost always an aisle dedicated to Korean food. In the capital maybe; small lesser known supermarkets in small towns rarely have that said aisle since most local people aren't really into Korean food and then, Korean food aren't exactly cheap either. In the aisle offering instant noodles, there probably would be some expensive Korean instant noodles but don't expect anything else Korean, not even kimchi, the traditional Korean side-dish of salted and fermented vegetables which is eaten with almost all Korean meal. I found my packet of Kimchi in Aeon, presently the biggest shopping mall in town.
