    Avoid Itaewon

    Posted by gavinleed 11 September 2006

    Though this area near to the US army base has been called a special tourist zone and is praised for it's international shops, it's really the place where sellers try and hawk tacky Korean gifts and American clothes to the (mostly) American tourists. There are many other markets which are more representative of Seoul and are pretty much only frequented by locals.
