Hello, Greetings, and Welcome to the Bess and i Blog!

On our latest show we ventured to two locations of our favorite second hand clothes store in Korea: Vin Prime.  There are eight locations around Seoul, but the two locations we went to, Sadang Station and Express Bus Terminal Station, are the largest.

They have an excellent selection of used Women’s and Men’s clothing.  It’s kind of like a thrift store and boutique put together.  Most of their clothing is 5,000 to 15,000 Won (about $5-$15).  They also have some designer items that are really expensive.  There was a fluffy coat that was 500,000 Won (about $500).  It was soft.  Really soft.  But not 500,000 Won soft.

They have lots of clearance racks, my personal favorite section of every store.

There web site is simple to navigate, but it’s all in Korean.  Below we’re going to post a quick translation of the site and maps from subway stops to the locations.

When you first access the website, this will be the page that will greet you.  Click “Shop Information” to enter.

This is the main page.  The top links just take you to a map that shows where the store is located in the train station or which exit to take to walk to the store.

There are two locations near Gingham Station.  For the first location, take exit 11.

For the second Gangnam store, walk out of exit 12.

This store is located in Sadang Station.  It is located near exit 3 and 4.  This is the largest store.

This location is also inside of the train station.  If you’re coming from the Orange Line, walk towards exit 3,4,5,6.  It’s in the Green Line part of the station near exit 3.  This location is not quite as large as the Sadang store, but it is the second biggest and has a great selection.

This location is also inside the station.  We haven’t been to this location, but it seems to be close to exit 10 or 7.

This location is just outside of Apgujeong Rodeo Station.  Take exit 6.

This location is not far outside of exit 3.

Head out of exit 4.  The store is located on B2 of the building that the CGV movie theatre is in.
