Question
Korea
How much cash should I carry in Korea versus using cards?
Hey travellers,
We're heading to Korea in a couple of months and trying to sort this out.
Back
Most places in Seoul and larger cities accept credit cards and mobile payments, but you'll want cash for street food, temples, and rural areas. Keep around 50,000-100,000 KRW per day in cash for smaller purchases and taxis. ATMs at banks and convenience stores are widely available if you run short.
