SEL-*** cheap fare from local agent?
Since I cannot read Korean, I wonder if anyone knows of good travel agency in SEL to sell tix to Japan. One way or RT is ok and plan to go early March. Pls advise. Thanks.

As far as I know it is MUCH cheaper to buy a Japan-Korea R/T in Japan (as low as $200) than a Korea-Japan R/T in Korea ($5-700 from most Korean travel agents).
If you must do a ICN-Japan segment, try to get it included in your longhaul ticket, even as a sidetrip. KE charges about $200 extra for ICN-NRT-ICN in Y as part of an Europe-Asia ticket, and KL can add a stopover in ICN on an Europe-NRT ticket at a low cost as well; I suppose other carriers, especially with a partner flying this route, can do the same.
