According to the Pepsi and RC Cola websites, both sodas are available in South Korea. Pepsi even has a special website: http://www.pepsicola.co.kr/
Also, just based on some Internet research, the formulas seem to be different for Korea than they are for America. It appears that high fructose corn syrup is an American thing because of cane sugar quotas, so at least the sweetener will be different. Probably cane sugar, so it should taste more like Mexican Coke than American Coke. Of course, local tastes vary as well, and sometimes companies alter their products accordingly. I'm really curious about this. Let me know how it goes.
Hmm Coke must have a corner on the market though bc I have noticed it in the grocery store or convenience stores. I'll keep an eye out now that I know it's possible to find it.
I did assume that any cola I bought here might taste differently than in the States, bc I remember I liked Coke when I went to Europe. I haven't been to Mexico in so long, I can't remember what their Coke taste like. But I feel my resolve to kick the soda habit weakening, so I'm sure I'll have an update soon :)
