lodging will be taken care of. don't have to worry about that. will 5,023yuan (roughly 1mill won worth) be enough for 1.5 months? don't plan on partying/drinking. just wanna relax, see the sights, eat out once in awhile...

You can manage on 100 yuan per day, but you never know. You may want to take a trip outside the city, or maybe buy some expensive things? Bring more money if you can, just to be safe.

200 yuan a day is a safe expectation. If you go out all night it could be 1000 a day. If you hang out at whereever you're staying and eat ramen it could be under 50.
