Use Cases

01

Travel Budget Planning

Plan your total travel budget by calculating accommodation, transportation, and meal costs in local currency before your trip. For example, instantly check how much 100,000 KRW converts to Japanese Yen for a trip to Japan, helping you decide the right amount and timing for currency exchange.

02

International Shopping Price Comparison

Check the actual KRW price of products on international shopping sites like Amazon and Taobao. Calculate the final cost including shipping and customs duties to make smart purchasing decisions by comparing with domestic prices.

03

Overseas Remittance & Study Abroad Costs

Accurately check the KRW equivalent of monthly tuition and living expenses you need to remit. Monitor exchange rate fluctuations to send money at favorable rates, potentially saving significant amounts and helping with long-term financial planning.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often is the exchange rate updated?

This service uses the Export-Import Bank of Korea API, updated around 11 AM on business days (KST). Data is not updated on weekends and Korean holidays.

Can I exchange money at the rate shown here?

The displayed rate is the standard rate for reference only. Actual exchange rates vary by bank's preferential rates and fees. Please check with your bank for actual rates.
