Lots of good cheap shopping in Seoul!
Here are some of the places that I recommend

1.Express Bus Terminal subway underground shopping in Gangnam area.
Lots of cheap clothing for women as well as home items like blankets. Can bargain.
Good to go when weather outside is too cold.

2. Gangnam Station
Main street outside the station as well as the side streets. Mostly bigger stores.

3. Hongdae(Hongik Station)
Lots of younger people there and very vibrant.
Many small independent shops, restaurants, cafes etc
Fav place to shop around.

4. Mario Outlet shopping for outdoor brands like Nike, Northface, local Korean brands such as K2, prospec, Black yak.
Subway is Gasan Digital exit 4(?). There are 3 malls named Mario 1,2,3 as well as W mall and Lotte mall.
There are multiples of each brand in the buildings and they carry different items n prices. Can sometimes bargain a bit.

5. Namdaemun market for all sorts of stuff. Place is huge.
Same w Dongdaemun.
Dongdaemun is more out of the way though n caters more towards wholesale.

Myeongdong used to be a nice shopping place but it is half empty now...

Happy shopping!
