I gotta say, I've been pretty modest with my spending here in Korea. Mostly because I prefer to spend my earnings on memories rather than clothes or material things. Sometimes, though, a girl needs to blow off a little steam from the wallet. I didn't go CRAZY. I just bought a few things for reasonable prices. There are lots of cheap clothing and shoe stores in Korea, but there are also several expensive boutiques. If you aren't careful, you can find yourself shopping in the wrong area, and spending lots of unnecessary green.
I recommend two places to shop for clothes in Ulsan/Korea. If you are shopping for clothes in Korea, as a general rule, do NOT go to department stores--I don't care WHAT "sales" they have going on. It's not worth it. Look for the university areas, and large shopping districts that are outdoors.
In Ulsan, I have found two places that have very reasonably priced items.
#1: University of Ulsan Area--also known as Mugeodong. I have been there many-a times, and each time I am tempted to stop by Rue Outlet to pick up some more scarves, jackets, or tops.
#2: Seongnam-dong: This is in fact, where I shopped today. Here's what I picked up....
Note* I do not buy bottoms, unless they are spandex--for obvious reasons....their pants won't even pass my calves...*sigh*
