I seem to have misplaced mine. I'm sure I could find one easily in bangkok when i get there but i'd like to have it at the ready now. Where's my best bet for looking?
namdaemun? itaewon? |

| If you're a guy, carry cash with a money clip. They're catching on in Korea and are harder for pickpockets to take. |

| I'm pretty sure I've seen them in my local Emart. Look for the sportswear / sports section and look through the daypack/waist(fanny) pack selection. Moneybelts are there, both the hanging off your shoulder and wrap around the waist styles. |

Money clips are designed to hold 20-25 bills, making them a lot thinner in your pocket. |

Harder than ordinary cash in pocket, right?
Not harder than a money belt.
I think a pickpocket in Korea would have an easy job, considering that it acceptable to brush into somebody. |
