<\/span>Different types of underground shopping centers<\/span><\/h2>\n

In Korea, underground shopping centers are all the rage. It is important to note that there are two kinds of underground shopping centers. Some centers are located in subway stations, while some are connected to larger vicinities, such as malls and department stores. In the subway station centers, the vendors allow you to negotiate and bargain the prices, while at the larger underground shopping centers the stores are more mainstream and you cannot negotiate the price. This will all make sense once you finish the blog!<\/p>\n

                    To begin, when shopping at larger underground malls it is the same as shopping at any other store. When you are shopping at the subway station stores, it can get a little different. The prices will vary from store to store and mall to mall. A majority of the time the prices are very reasonable. If you find yourself really wanting something, but the price is a little high, it is very common to bargain with the vendor and ask for a discount. As long as you do it politely, then they usually are willing to accommodate. Another thing to know is that a lot of the vendors do not take credit cards, so it is good idea to bring cash, and a lot of it!<\/p>\n
