I am pretty late, but hopefully since you are going back frequently this can still help. I myself also travel to Korea fairly often and for the most part I have to say you are out of luck as far as physical stores go. There are guides online for how to get there but there used to be a big video game market in the Yongsan District of Seoul though it is pretty much dead now in my personal experience. I myself mostly just buy console games on sites like gmarket when I am there. Keep in mind that in Korea, PC gaming is king and space is limited so there is far less of a collector's community. That being said, if you can read/write Hangeul there are plenty of sites where you can pick stuff up that is almost impossible to get in America. If you end up in any other Asian markets, I can say I had much better luck in China, HK, and Japan than I ever did in Korea. Hope this helps!
