Welcome to the 2nd video on the Sights of Seoul HD Video Tour. This video is all about the Nagwon Arcade, located at Jungno-3 Ga in central Seoul. The Nagwon Arcade is the best shopping spot in Seoul for musical instruments and equipment. After watching this video, please check out some other HD videos I've produced with my VADO HD pocket video recorder. Also, listen to my audio podcasts for teachers and expats in Korea at http://www.themidnightrunner.com .

nagwon used to be the home of great vintage pieces for cheap, back in the late 90s early 2000s, young Koreans didnt want the old Japanese analog stuff. I cant tell you how much stuff I got for cheap then. All of that is gone now. A few pieces pop up and theyre ridiculous. UNDERGROUND was the only store who had any sense of what was cool and now thats closed (he got sick of people not knowing what a vintage gibson or a fuzz costs). Its just young guys selling cheaper gears mostly, a repair shops

Just be careful of that Jongno 3 (sam) Ga station. It's quite labyrinthine, and if you don't follow the signs, you will get lost.
