For changing RM to Won, is RM 3.22 expensive? I can't find any money changer that have rate of RM 3.1x now (((
And using VISA credit card, exchange rate is RM 3.14 (added 1% bank foreign transaction fee charge)... better to use credit card... but can't use card everywhere, right?

Hello! I would like to book for KTX tickets from Seoul to Busan in October. However, I am not sure if the ticket used for KTX is the KR Pass. May I ask if anyone of you could share your experiences booking for KTX tickets in advance online? I am a International Youth Travel Card (IYTC), but I'm not sure if I am eligible for the Youth Pass price though.

Thank you!

By the way, have anyone tried to use a multi sockets on top of an adapter in Seoul? Heard from the shop assistant in electronic shop that it might burn or something.. but I need to charge a lot things (laptop, camera, power banks, phones) at night at one time.

Thank you!

I have used multi socket plugs + adapter before in Korea and it seemed OK. I charged phone, camera battery, WiFi egg etc. Bring a decent enough one should be fine I guess....

it is safe to use multi sockets plug to power up multiple low Amp device like phones & powerbank.. just dont share it with refrigerator or iron.. most important, get a quality one with fuse or circuit protection..

which credit card u using?

latest i found around RM3.20


i also try to book their KR pass for 3 days but their website look like got problem... page not found

I'm using Maybank VISA card. Called to their customer service, the person said that it will follows VISA Exchange Rates. And I calculated using their website:
http://usa.visa.com/personal/card-benefits...-calculator.jsp

It is official website for VISA so I think it is legit (?)
Today is RM3.13 (including 1% bank foreign transaction fee)

Where did you find out RM 3.20?

I exchanged at money changer in mid valley at 3.20 yesterday. Can I use credit card in lotte mart and faceshop? Credit card rate is definitely much better.

You can use CC practically anywhere in Seoul... even at 7-11

I also planning to advance book KTX KR Pass online, after did some research and go throught their website seems like you can only book 1 month in advance, so if you plan to get for october, September only able to make the booking online.

but the problem is... cant go into their booking website..

Last 2 week I able to access , later tonight after work I go back find the website again and share to you here.

share the link if u able to access...thanks
