| How do I wire money in Korea? I am in Ulsan, would like to wire some money to the states on payday. Is that possible here? |

| You go to your bank and wire it there. |

| If you google western union korea you'll get a list of banks & locations that serve as agents for them. Be warned, its really expensive -- several times the service charges of bank-to-bank wire transfers. |

Yes, there is a big Western Union sign outside of Pusan Bank near HHI in Dong-gu. You could go there if you need their services.
Who do you bank with? Can't you arrange it with you bank? |

| If you have a bank back in the states to wire to (with Western Union), go to a KB that has a Western Union, and I'd suggest just doing a regular wire transfer to your bank (rather than the Western Union). I did that when I thought I'd have to use Western Union, and they did it the regular wire transfer way instead, and I didn't even have an account with them. Made me like KB so far as a bank in Korea. I went to the one in Itaewon, and they were really friendly. |
