Developing C-41 in Seoul


Recommended Posts

<p>Hi,<br>

There's a lab called Photopia (photopia.co.kr). I think it's near to Chungmuro subway station. Very reasonable priced Q-lab and they do optical contact sheets for C41. You could try ringing for directions or ask your hotel to ring for you as not many of the staff speak English. Sorry, I can't give a more precise location. It's been two years since I was last there.<br>

<p>hi peng,<br>

i am cutting and pasting a response i gave to someone else from over a year ago. if you search the word chungmuro, you will come across the answer to your question. if i remember correctly, a 35mm roll of E6 slide film cost about 7 US dollars to process at photopia. i've never had c41 done at photopia. here is my old answer:</p>

<p>"i just moved to seoul 3 months ago and had asked on this site where film could be bought in seoul. now that i've found my way around here i can tell you that i buy all my camera equipment near the 'chungmuro' subway station. go to chungmuro station and take exit 6 and walk straight. you'll come across tons of camera stores. all of them can direct you to a place called 'photopia'. these guys had a bunch of chemicals when i walked in a couple of weeks ago. i dont do my own processing but it seemed like they had everything you'd need. they do develop black and white as well as slide film. thats what i went there for. very professional. they have another location at 'sinsa' subway station... pronounced 'shinsa'. but the chungmuro station is where all the camera stores are. these stores have everything from large format, to alpas, hasselblads, leicas, and used equipment you would never find in north america.<br>

you can check out photopia's website.... www.photopia.co.kr though its all in korean."<br>

hope this helps</p>
