Best place to cheap fresh vegetables is in your local outdoor market. There'll be heaps of them in Seoul. Usually there's at least one in most neighbourhoods.

You may travel to Itaewon and find find vegetable in a shop called Foreign mart.

The most commonly avalilable veg all over like E-mart, C&U, are potato,brinjal,Tomato,Cabbage,Carror,Onion,chilly,lettuce,Capsicumm,Cauliflower etc.

Hope this info should be ok.

A local market near your area will a best place to start. Google can help you or have time to go around and discover places with your husband. Good luck.

There's a market of sorts in almost every neighbourhood in Korea. Yes the supermarkets like Homeplus and Emart are good but the prices are substantially higher and the produce isn't as fresh. All you need to do is to take good long walks and discover the area(s) around where you live, you'll be hard pressed not to find one.

Guess it really depends on whether you're keen to explore, many of the back streets in Korean cities offer far more interesting things than the popular expat hangouts like Itaewon.
