I've bought some before from an online supermarket, but it's very expensive (£6 per 350ml bottle) @ http://shop.waiyeehong.com/drinks/alcoholic-beverages/spirits/chamjin-isulro-soju-korean-spirit

Does anyone know of a place to get soju for cheaper in the UK? I'm not actually in the UK, so somewhere that ships would be nice (I can get it sent to someone and shipped to me if they don't send direct to the Channel Islands, as some places don't). Or is anyone nice and might agree to sort something out if they can buy it locally and ship to me (in the Channel Islands).

C'mon TL UK, you can do it!

Hmm, I honestly don't know, I'd be kind of interested in trying some myself if anyone knows. The only kind of place I can think of would be some kind of Korean supermarket, I don't know of any or if they even exist at all but there are quite a few Chinese supermarkets where I live, I imagine there must be one somewhere.

Had a quick google search and didn't find much, apparently a Sainsbury's in Essex sells it, I find it hard to believe that's the only one that does though...

If a Sainsbury's in Essex does, other Sainsbury's SHOULD. But who knows, nobody goes into Sainsburys

Damn I feel really bad for you, soju is like 2 bucks in Korea and 4 bucks in the U.S.
I can't help you with your dilemma, but might i suggest that you try some matgulli (Korean rice wine) as well? it's fucking delicious.
