I could have been mistaken, but either way, I'm looking for Korean manga. |

You can try going to a Korean bookstore and ask them. If you have a specific title in mind it would probably help. There is a bookstore in Koreantown - between Christie and Bathurst station. I know for sure they take orders for books, music and DVDs from Korea. You can start there. There are a couple of Korean comic book rental places in North York but I don't know if they sell them too
And yes, Korean comics are called "manhwa". |

Wow... I had no idea there was a Korean bookstore right in my city... How sad....
Uh... Are there any Japanese bookstores anywhere? |

Well, there is a pretty large Korean population in Toronto (as you may have noticed during last year's World Cup)...
I have no idea if there is a Japanese bookstore in Toronto. If you're just interested in manga, there's always Kikiwai (in a mall in Chinatown somewhere, website - http://www.kikiwai.com) - they always have a table at the Toronto anime conventions. I don't know if AnimeXtreme, which is near Kikiwai by the way, (http://www.animextreme.ca) has any original Japanese manga. You may already know all this, but just in case.... |

Yeah, I already know about Kikiwai and Anime Xtreme. I go to Kikiwai often and check out AX at cons. Thanks anyway for telling me though.
I wish we had a Kinokuniya or something to that effect though. They have a much better selection. |
