Place to buy mashimaro pens in Hong Kong/Melbourne?

Is there a store in Hong Kong or in Melbourne, Australia where I could buy Mashimaro pens?

Someone recently told me they'd like Mashimaro pens as a gift, and had previously seen them for sale at Changi airport. The stationery shop at Changi is closed now, but I will be in Hong Kong for five days before visiting them in Melbourne. Google doesn't bring anything up except Amazon/Alibaba options - it doesn't seem like they are a special enough brand to list stores you can buy them. I know Mashimaro is Korean, but does anyone know of a pen/stationery store in HK that I could check out? A location in Melbourne would be ideal but since she lives there I'm assuming (possibly optimistically) that she would already know if there was any.

I wonder if a Japanese department store in Hong Kong would have them? Their stationery sections are very good but I've never noticed if they sell Korean brands. At any rate, there's SOGO in Causeway Bay.

"Morning Glory" stores in Melbourne (used to be one in Melbourne Central, there's like 4 in the general China town vicinity of Bourke, little Bourke, and Lonsdale etc from around Swanston and Exhibition Sts, will have these - if anywhere does. That's where I've bought mashimaro stuff in the past, though he's not so cool as he once was, so be aware it may be a stretch.

Response by poster: Thanks for the suggestions - I checked out SOGO and it didn't seem to have them, and I passed on the Morning Glory suggestion to her, which seemed like a new idea so I'm sure she'll visit them and be happy even if they don't have these pens!
