Oversized and tailored clothing are popular buys in Itaewon, while exclusive Hannam-dong is home to fashion flagships and back-alley boutiques. The street running south from Itaewon subway, Bogwang-ro, has been lined with antiques shops ever since the first departing US soldiers sold off their belongings. Secondhand mobile phones are among the best buys at Yongsan Electronics Market and neighbouring I’Park Mall.
