Koryo Books

Friendly staff. Definitely pricey, but a good resource if you're in the area and would rather not pay $10+ for shipping online plus wait a couple of weeks. I wish they had more Girls' Generation merch, but the amount of Girl Groups paled in comparison to Boy Group merchandise. Clean store, wonderful books as well. I've been learning Korean on and off for a few years, so I picked up a few easy reads to enjoy. They do have the Talk to me in Korean books if you're looking to learn as well, pricer than they are online, but again, if you don't want to wait, get them here.

They had everything and so much more BTS stuff than I could imagined. I enjoyed my time and they played BTS music which was great. The staff were great and very helpful. Very impressive.

They have some good stuff, especially if you're a K-pop fan like my daughter and me. The reason why I only gave it 3 stars is because they are expensive. It's still a small, but cool place to walk around if you want a bit of the Korean feeling.

I enjoyed looking around here. Wish they had a few english translation books but a clean store with unique items.

OMG!!!! I went there yesterday after school and this place was literally HEAVEN. There's so much merchandise for fans who love kpop. There is a good variety albums from older and newer groups. The posters are very well made and there are many cute kpop related little gifts such as pens, keychains, stickers, posters, cards, etc. They also sell unofficial merch such as hats, tshirts, and hoddies with a group's name on them. There is also a section for those into Korea beauty products such as face masks. I'm sorry I can't elaborate more in that section since I was too in aww about all the kpop in one room lol. Since it is a bookstore there is also many books in Korean that vary from children books to books that help teach you Korean. There is also a tiny section upstairs which I believe sells Korean inspired clothing. They lady working up there was so cute because she was dancing and singing along to all the songs that were playing. In general my experience was AMAZINGGG!! This was my 1st time going and I was in love. I legit spent almost 2 hours in there because of how amazing the store is. I highly recommend anyone who is a fan of kpop in New York to check out this amazing store 💙
