Does anyone know if it's possible to withdraw cash from a Visa or Mastercard at an ATM or bank in Korea?
Also, do travel agents/airlines accept foreign credit cards when buying air tickets to travel out of Korea?
Thanks for your help! |

Ofcourse, but you must choose the correct ATM. KT Bank or the other main banks will let you withdraw but be careful as I had withdrew too much from my UK Visa card and left me with a small fortune to pay back to the bank. |

Where I'm at, there are no ATMs that will take foreign cards, so I have to travel around an hour just to find an ATM that will. You might need to call your bank to let them know you'll be withdrawing money first though. |
