## Shopping in Korea
A lot of Korean stores are these buildings called “상가.” Typically, this is a building made out of marble and has signs plastered all over it on the outside. In one of these buildings, there may be dozens upon dozens of stores (or other things like restaurants and other places of business). Stores in these buildings typically do not sell brand name products, although sometimes you will find a store in a 상가 that sells one specific brand name. The more popular brand names/stores would be on the ground floor of the building usually facing the street, while to get to other random stores you might have to go in and go up a few floors.

Higher-end merchandise is usually found at Department Stores (백화점). The most popular Department stores in Korea are: Lotte Department Store (롯데백화점), Shinsegae Department Store and (신세계백화점) and Hyundai Department Store (현대백화점).

People working in any of these stores, but especially the department stores will go out of their way to help you and speak politely to you. By now, you probably haven’t learned about the honorific \~(으)시 form, but this is something that you will hear if you are speaking to somebody who is serving you in a store/restaurant. The word for customer is “고객,” but when an employee is talking to you _as_ a customer, they will call you “고객님.”

Of course, you can always buy things in markets (시장). Of course, there are many markets scattered across Korea. The two most popular/famous in Seoul are Dongdaemun Market (동대문시장) and Namdaemun Market (남대문시장). In these types of markets, venders will have their goods in small stall-like spaces. Haggling for cheaper prices is not usually done in Korea, which is something I really like. I have been to many countries in the world (70 of them, actually), and there are very few countries where – even though you look different and _everybody_ can see that you are a foreigner – nobody tries to take advantage of you because you are a foreigner. The old man in the stall in 동대문 market will sell you his Korean traditional clothing for the same price as he would sell it to a Korean person.
