K-pop definitely isn't the easiest form of popular music to find here in America. Sometimes you'll get lucky and have a store with enough pre-orders/orders to warrant selling copies in the store such as the one my friend found pictured above. They were selling the poster and it was displayed in the store as well. This is pretty rare as it's hard to find anywhere that will sell K-pop on shelves in America. If you don't mind not having physical copies of the music, the albums are usually almost always offered on iTunes.
Basically, the internet is your best friend when you need to purchase Korean music.
The way I get most of my K-pop is eBay or Amazon or another internet source. I've purchased a couple albums online, and these were shipped straight from Korea. I've posted some pictures of the albums I've ordered below.

In listening to kpop, do you find yourself buying the songs because you like the singing and music, or do you actually look up the translations for the songs that you purchase?
