Looking for condensed milk. Didn't see any at Namcheon Mega Mart or Seomyeon Lotte. Any ideas?

I've seen Seoul Milk-sweetened condensed milk at e-mart, in both can and squeezable bottle. it's in the refrigerated section. They always have it out at the Asian Mart as well. Just curious, what do you use it for?

I'm looking to recreate the Vietnamese coffee situation - about a third of a cup paint-stripper strength coffee mixed with equal amounts condensed milk. Very nice iced.
Thanks for the tip.

I usually see it in the megastores, too. Now I am going to have to add that is usually a little easier to find in the warmer months after all the fixings for the papbinsoo (sp?) come out.
Now I sometimes use it for coffee because I do not like the powdered mess. It also keeps much longer than regular milk. Another thing I like is using some of the coffee(flavored) milk in my coffee at work. Before coming here I became attached to those non-diary creamers. I prefer the liquids because it helps to cool down really hot coffee, and if it has some coffee flavor to it, this does not take away so much of the taste.

I saw some at most of the filipino/asian markets on Texas street/Shanghai street area near Busan station. They also have coconut milk.

I found Korean brand stuff at Mega Mart. It was in/near the jam section I believe in a squeezable bottle.

Homeplus and Topmart carry it.
I grew up eating it on bannanas with crushed peanuts sprinkled on top. Now my wife is addicted to this tasty treat.
