Need a used car?
June 23, 2007
The husband of one of my coworkers buys used cars on the Korean market and exports them to various markets around the world.
If you or anyone else you know needs a car, let him. He can be reached directly at 010-7123-1438 (his name is Shan) Cars can be found to meet any budget! Or, search for a specific make and model. Autobike/scooter requests can also be made. Good luck.
And no…Seoulsteves is NOT taking commission from this endeavor–we are not in the used car business.

Mountain Climbing Club
June 23, 2007
A team of mountain trekking beginners is going to Jiri Mountain next month–they are also going hiking every weekend. If you are interested in joining this group, please send an email to their leader here. (i do believe it is a Korean hiking club, so this would be a good chance for those seeking intercultural experiences on the ROK.)
