If you live on either coast, or even in the Midwest in a major metropolitan area, you'll have no problem finding an Asian grocery store. Korean-specific markets are a little harder to find, and if you're somewhere where there isn't a huge population of Korean people, well, you might find yourself at a loss when a craving for kimchee strikes. You can make it yourself, or you can click over to koaMart, an online Korean food grocer.
Sure, they do the dry, non-perishable goods like ramen and rice, but they can send perishable goods like tofu and kimchee as well. I've never shopped at the store since I live in Los Angeles, but if I were in say, the mountains of Colorado (or really, really lazy) I might give them a try. Shipping isn't cheap, but hey, when you need your pickled, fermented cabbage, you gotta do what you gotta do.

Suprisingly, a lot of large grocery stores are now carrying kimchi. I tried all the asian markets in Chico,CA but they were all hmong family owned, so no korean food. They directed me to the local Safeway, where sure enough, in the refridgerated section near the vegetables, were some jars of kimchi. The only downside is that they only carried the mild flavor, but still a good find.
