Korea Receipts

Real prices. Checked this month. From Seoul.

Terms of Use and Disclaimer

Prices change. Here's what you can and can't rely on this site for.

Prices are a snapshot, not a quote

Every article says the date its prices were checked. Prices in Korea change — fares go up, menus get reprinted, promotions start and end, and the won moves against the dollar. A number on this site is what I saw on that date, on that screen, menu or receipt. It is not a promise that you will pay the same.

  • Dollar figures are conversions. I convert at the rate stated in the article, rounded. Your card will use its own rate and may add a foreign transaction fee.
  • Individual stores vary. Chain restaurants in Korea often let each branch set its own price. Where I know that, the article says so.
  • Check before you book or budget to the won. Where there’s an official source, the article links to it.

What this site is not

This is travel cost information from one person who lives in Seoul. It is not financial, legal, tax, immigration or medical advice, and it is not an official source for any transit operator, restaurant or business mentioned. Nothing here is sponsored unless the article says so.

No warranty

I work hard to get numbers right and to say plainly what I couldn’t verify. Even so, the site is provided “as is.” To the extent the law allows, I’m not liable for losses from relying on information here — including a fare that changed after the checked date.

Corrections

If something is wrong or out of date, please tell me through the Contact page. I fix errors and update the checked date when I re-verify.

Photos and text

Photos on this site were taken by me unless a caption says otherwise. Screenshots of official fare pages are shown to document the price on the date checked. Please don’t republish the photos or articles without asking; short quotes with a link back are fine.

Articles link to other websites. I don’t control them and am not responsible for their content. This site may show ads (see the Privacy Policy). If an article ever contains affiliate links, it will say so at the bottom — and the prices reported are still what I saw on screen.

Changes

I may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version.
