Yah, go to Dongdaemoon near the stadium – the whole area is covered in buildings filled with cheap clothing – Sundays there is a huge street market – really a great way to spend an afternoon !

Dongdaemun is the place been there 3 weeks ago. You’ll get tired checking their items there….try going to Doota. Some stalls may not allow you to fit clothes.

Myeongdong got lots of boutique too both designer brands and local.

Try scavenging the streets of Myung-dong, Itaewon or Idae. Most street places won't let you try on their pants, but there are some actual shops (pretty cheap too, cheapest pants are about 25,000 won?) that have dressing stalls. Dongdaemoon is also pretty good.

Depends on how much you classify as ‘cheap’. I reckon most clothes shops let you try things on as long as you ask them…at least I know in Australia they do.

Where is a cheap place to go shopping for pants in Seoul, South Korea?
I’m looking for a cheap place to buy colored pants, not jeans, in Seoul. Preferably someplace where i can try things on.
