I think so.

There is a big difference between the taste and the texture. Are you sure you can't find cassava in Seoul? You might find them in Southeast Asian food stores - while living in London I found that some actually have it imported, it's worth a try...my mother makes a mean cassava cake and would never use substitutes! Good luck!

I think so. I checked Wikepedia, and it says that Cassava can be used as a potato substitute, so I guess the other way around would work as well!

cassava is a root or tuber, very starchy - i guess its kind of like a sweet potato or yam... in Fiji i believe they often bake it in its skin - which is quite thick - in a sort of underground oven. i don't know if your local grocery store will stock it - here in the UK i can get it at small specialist grocers or food markets but not often in the large chain supermarkets. good luck with the cake!
