A reader requests:
Long story short, does anyone know where or who may have some Sienfeld DVDs. In Seoul, Korea?
I have no idea. Anybody know?

they sell some used one at technomart…gangbyun station…line number 2 in seoul…8th floor i believe…a bunch of shops there
I think i have seen them in the DVD store by the CGV at Yongsan Mall.
(5th or 6th Floor).
Failing that there is a book store, they name of which escapes me, in the underpass near the Lotte Dept stores. As i cant remember the name, the underpass opens out into a circular area, the bookstore is off one of hte spokes from this and they also have a DVD store in there with a decent range of US TV collections. Maybe someone can recall the name of the place?
try Yongsan, or find a friend on the internet who will share them with you, ie:

Should add that i mean the Lotte stores in Myeongdong.
I have some Seinfeld dvds. However, I bought them in China and it’s not the best quality. There are like 5 seasons here. lol
Guaranteed they are sold at the Yongsan PX.
Also worthy of note: Jerry Seinfeld in Season 2 of “30 Rock”. You can catch the full episode and most of season 2 on streaming video on nbc.com
Link is below…but you need to find the icon of Jerry Seinfeld’s face on the right side. The episode is great…Enjoy

they are situated in the 전자랜드 mall in yongsan
Kyobo Online (kyobobook.com) is selling Vol 1 (Season 1+2), Vol 2 and others for only 20,000 won each…
Almost as cheap as the dvd-r guys, eh?
Kyobo Bookstore Gwanghwamun has a lot of those American TV shows DVD-sets. The ones popular in Korea, at least…
Bittorrent and a CD burner are your friends.
Go to Yongsan subway station and exit at the North side. Looking out of the large window you should see 전자란드 and the railway tracks. Cross the large covered bridge overlooking the railway tracks and I think you’ll enter the Bus Terminal building. (See #2 on the map link.) They sell a large number around this building.

If you want more DVD’s cross the parking lot and there are other vendors selling them. Out of container boxes (no kidding) They are located in front of 선인상가21동 again on the map provided above.
The price is 10,000 won for a season box set and they usually give you a bonus disc of your choice to boot. ALWAYS check the surface of EACH DVD for schmegma on the surface. They also have T.V.s and DVD players there and I usually ask to view them because I need subtittles. These guys often promise subtitles and they don’t deliver so don’t feel guilty about checking the goods.
Each vendor usually has a catalogue of every series available. Individual movies are usually 4 for 10,000 won.
Good Lord! A non-Dokdo comment from ye!
@12 Kudos dude. I got my entire Dr. Who, including the latest there. Primo quality, and I did see Seinfeld in the catalogue. Also, quite an awesome Pojangmacha there - Enjoy.
While we’re on this subject…does anyone know where to order blu ray or even just plain DvDs with Korean subtitles on the internet?
I’m trying to find a place that’ll ship back to the States.
“ALWAYS check the surface of EACH DVD for schmegma on the surface.”
puhahaha…. i don’t think i’ll ever go to that store…
You can watch the entire series online here.

Re the answers on this thread. Next time I read comments complaining about Koreans ignoring the law, I’m going to take it with a huge grain of salt.
Here’s a legal way you can get Seinfeld:
