Korea's currency unit is won which comes in 1,000,
5,000 and 10,000 won bills, and 10, 50,100 and
500 won coins. You can exchange money at the airport
or banks nearby. Generally, banks are open between
09:30-16:30 Monday to Friday. Automated teller
machines are in operation 24 hours a day. Most
large stores, hotels and restaurants in Korea
will accept major international credit cards.
However, it is advisable to carry some cash, since
many smaller establishments and stores are unlikely
to accept any form of credit cards.
