There are two new Toys R Us stores that are attached to Lotte Marts in Seoul and one south of Osan nearer Busan. You can look them up online at www.toysrus.co.kr, but the site is in Hangul so it's a bit tricky. If you know someone who speaks Korean, they can help you translate. The store is really nice and worth the trip. There are Korean and American toys. The toys are more expensive than an American Toys R Us, but they are a bit cheaper than other places like E-Mart and the selection is the best I've seen yet in Korea.
To get there, you can take the train to the Guro station in Seoul. When you come out of the station, look around for Lotte Mart and you've found it. Very easy.
You can drive, but it's a bit more complicated and you're best off confirming the directions with a Korean local before going.
To get there:
- Take the Big 1 North and following the directions to Incheon (Rt. 50 West)
- Take the West Suwon exit
- Go North on the "Little 1" for about 20 minutes.
- Cross over the Han River
- Exit immediately and turn right on the other side of the river so that you are driving along the river road for about 5 minutes.
- Turn right to go back over the river at Guro Station (see signs)
- You'll see Lotte Mart and a Toys R Us sign in front of you.
- Turn left in front of Lotte Mart and turn right to get to the parking lot
- Toys R Us is in the basement. There is an elevator and escalators.

We have actually transferred at the Guro stationed to the blue line headed toward Incheon, then get off at the Guil station. The Lotte mart is literally right there.
