You don't notice in PRC where it's always 8-1.
Here , a few years ago, 100 US gave you 125 Korean (taking the zeros out.) It's now sort of 1-1. Man that's a large drop/
On the other hand it will be nice changing money the other way.
So much for my Economics post. Things look OK-as long as the work visa goes smoothly . First thing I noticed is how warm it is everywhere..(Indoors I mean-freezing outside.) This PC room feels like Thailand. Tooo hot One more thing (me being Lager and all
) I see they have these MASSIVE bottles of beer-almost like a novelty item...Called a "pitcher" and even I would be hard pressed to finish 2 (OK maybe 3.)
Anyway thanks for the "good lucks" All went smoothly-as noted they just take the green book when exiting. And (as a lucky Canadian) I am now stamped in for a 6-month visit.
