I booked my ferry ticket from Fukuoka to Busan on the JR Beetle website:
https://www.jrbeetle.co.jp/ships2e/sp2p/index.html

It says my payment was "settled" when I reserved with my Korean credit card, but it hasn't come off my bill. Has anyone here made a reservation this way? Did they take your payment just before the trip, or did you pay and pick up the ticket at the port? Did you have to pay with the credit card you booked with?
The problem is, I want to cancel my Korean card before I go since I'll be leaving Korea the day after I return.

I think that's normal. I used my AMEX from the States and it took a few weeks before it finally showed up on my statement even though it showed "settled" for a while before.

Can you buy a return ticket from Busan to Fukuaka at the ferry terminal on the day?

i'm sure you could, that is assuming that there are still seats available. I would check the website in advance just to be on the safe side though.

I wonder if using a credit card is ok. I am in Fukuoka right now, but would like to return to Busan in a day or two.

What's the normal price to pay? My friend paid about 300 thousand won last time she went.

that is about the normal price. They sometimes run sales for around 190 or something and also for midweek dates I know the price is lower.
