Hello!
The reply is as follows:
1. In April, the weather in South Korea is no longer cold, but it is still a little bit chilly. The climate in Incheon, Seoul, is roughly the same as that of Yantai and Qingdao, China, and Busan is slightly warmer. , Jeju Island is a little warmer. Although the temperature is relatively suitable for traveling, there are not many sunny days on the Korean Peninsula in April. The weather would be better in May.
2. Cheap souvenirs include: boxed seaweed, girls’ hairpin hairpins, bags of human candy, etc. You can buy seaweed and hairpin hairpins in Nandaemun. For better ones, go to Buy it in Myeongdong; buy Renjian candy at the Myeongdong store or Itaewon store in Korea, and there is absolutely no parallel import.
3. Does Little Bear refer to Teddy Bear? If it is a parallel import, it is sold on the roadside in Namdaemun. The authentic Bear Museum in Jeju Island sells it and it is not expensive. It seems that Lotte Supermarket also sells it, but I don’t know if it is still sold now. The prices don’t seem to be cheaper than domestic online stores.
4. All major department stores and hypermarkets in Korea have stationery counters with many varieties and not expensive prices. You can go and have a look. As for how much cheaper it is than in China, I haven't compared it. Anyway, I just buy it if I need it, and I don't care.
5. Personally, I think you can buy the following products in Korea:
(1) Stainless steel spoons, coffee spoons, etc. The molds are well made, so the products look very exquisite and the price is good. It is 1/3 cheaper than in China. The products at Namdaemun stalls are already very good. If you go to Jongno or Myeongdong to buy them, the quality is better but the price is more expensive
(2) Insadong The Korean national handicrafts, such as fans, small wood carvings, masks, bronze bells, etc., are inexpensive and meticulous in workmanship. It is also a good idea to keep them as souvenirs at home, especially the coin set, which can be placed on the desk as a decoration. Great handicrafts. Every time I go to Korea, I take a dozen of them with me and give them to my friends when I come back. They all like them very much.
(3) For Korean kimchi, don’t buy kimchi. Buy special radish and horseradish. It is very delicious. Of course, you may not be used to it, so you should decide according to your own taste.
(4) Cosmetics are said to be good, and more suitable for Asian skin. Unfortunately, I have a beard, so I don’t know how to use them. They usually have LP written on paper. I got them from Hyundai and Lotte. Or at the counter of Shinsegae Department Store, I stupidly handed it to the Korean saleswoman, who laughed ambiguously and helped me to arrange it. I took out my wallet... and finally said to me: (Chinese) compatriot brothers must be very scared. Is your wife Chinese? ...Leave, just pretend you didn’t hear it. :)
