They have to be either shipped to an Official dance studio or "smuggled" out. For That reason they can cost between 200 - 800 USD.

Hwarang,

Could you please let me know how you came to that belief? Who told you this?

OP,

If all else were to fail I could run down the street (OK, I'd drive), buy one jang-gu and post it to you. Honestly, the shipping though would be a killer <they really aren't costly...maybe $150~$200 USD?>. Sorry, I've never priced one.

Cheers,

DH

A korean dance instructor here in houston, I cant remember her name, but we called her Sung Sang Nym. Of course her engilsh is barely understandable so I might have misunderstood her. But I've looked in all the korean stores here in houston( houston has a large korean population) and none of them have one. The ONLY places I have found that have it are dance studios, and korean churches( that teach kids about their culture and language).
