If you monitor the currency trend for RM closely... you tend to get lower rate somewhere on July - September (due low season maybe). It should be around 2.7 - 2.9 only.

But from November onwards the rate goes slightly up but still below 3.15. And once the winter season is over... the rate keeps on increasing to 3.22 (latest showed in Moneymaster).

I went there last February and changed my RM on January (3.12). That's the lowest that I can get. Yes, still high. Sobs. I used my Citibank credit card for cosmetic purchase and food purchase... turns out that the rate Citibank charge is slightly lower than the rate that I changed at Money Changer. I'm not sure whether is it applied to Citibank credit card only or to all credit cards.

Hi guys I will be going to busan this june for work trip but I will only have 1 whole free day. If I take the KTX to Seoul for a one day trip, any recommended places to go?

I will have the rest of my days in Busan so I'm thinking to squeeze one day to Seoul since this is my first trip to korea. Not sure if it will be worth it though.
