Hello, cherlytab-ga!
I must say that this question was quite a challenge. Language proved
to be a formidable barrier in finding travel agencies which sell
international tickets in Taiwan, especially. The travel agency
websites exist, but I have no way of understanding them. They are
almost all in Chinese!!
I was more successful in the Korean search. Again, however, language
and lack of websites posed a problem.
Here is what I have found for you!
==
The following travel agencies were gleaned from the "Hong Kong
Association of Travel Agents" website:
http://www.hata.org.hk/hata_client/client/main.html
Due to the lack of websites, websites that do not work (as is the
case of many that are listed) and websites that are not in English,
the agencies I have listed are those that either "appear" to offer
international ticketing, or "definitely" offer international
ticketing. When the agencies do not have websites, and merely say
"outbound services and ticketing," it is extremely hard to know
whether the ticketing is actually international.
There were many agencies that provided international ticketing for a
few specific countries, or concentrated strictly on tours, so I
avoided those. The complete member list may, in fact, contain more
agencies that offer international ticketing, but I did not want to
inundate you with agencies that might not fit the bill. You can easily
look through the list if you want to contact the more questionable
agencies individually.
==
The agencies listed below are "definites"...or reasonable bets. (The
agencies followed by a website link are those that definitely check
out as offering international ticketing to most areas of the world)

Individual travel agents were very difficult to locate in Taiwan. The
"Taiwan Association of Travel Agents" has no website. However, their
contact details, should you wish to contact them, are:

Three pages of travel agent listings are listed on the following
website, but after looking through all of them, I found not a single
one in English!
http://edir.yam.com/com/service/trva/tagent/takhc/index2.html
==
Another lengthy list of travel agents is available at
http://www.allotaiwan.com/dir/Travel/Travel_Agents/?page=1ll
(Again, not a single one is in English!)

The ONLY site I have found with an English translation follows:

F. TICKETING FOR INTERNATIONAL FLIGHTS ********
G. OTHER TRAVEL RELATED SERVICE
H. TOUR INFORMATION
==
I truly wish I could be more helpful with the Taiwan listings, but
after several hours of searching for Taiwan agencies alone, I could
come up with only the one translated into English!
Therefore, if the individual Airlines are of any help:
"Virtual Taiwan" provides a list of international airlines that
service Taiwan and includes a list of Booking and Ticketing phone
numbers.
http://www.virtual-asia.com/taiwan/travelpack/intair.htm
==
I hope this has been of some help. If you are not restricted to
reading in English, I will feel much better! If I can help you further
by looking for Hong Kong or Taiwanese booking agents in the United
States or go in another direction to help you, please don't hesitate
to ask for clarification.
