Gift Shop in Ansan

I found a great gift shop in Ansan yesterday.  Before, the only real place to get nice souvenirs and Korean gift items was in Namdaemun or other touristy areas in Seoul.  This shop in Ansan is very nice.  It is downstairs and has all kinds of handmade jewelry, soap that looks like cupcakes (only in Korea!), many kinds of traditional Korean artworks, clothing, etc.

Signs in the store said No Pictures.  I can't understand why.  It's really a very nice shop full of cool stuff.


I wish I could read the name on the sign.  Not sure if the address in the location box is exactly right, but the map pinpoint should be spot-on.

A bit further down the street, away from the main road, is a store called NEWS.


It has some interesting, Korean-themed gifts.  It also has school supplies as well as things like watches and perfumes.  It's a fun shop.  But don't even think about shoplifting.  Signs, in Korean, say that you will be fined 30x the price of the item you stole.  They will also call your parents!  ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
