I don't know how many people here visit Tsushima for an actual look around as opposed to a visa run, but I'm gonna go to Tsushima over the Chuseok holiday and I just had a couple of general questions.

1. Does anyone know a good place to exchange Korean Won into Japanese Yen, in Busan? I can't go to a bank (they close at 4pm) due to work. Anywhere else with a good exchange rate?

2. Does anyone know how expensive hotels/B&Bs are on Tsushima? If I can't use my Korean bank card then I guess I need to know how much cash to carry, just in case.

Thanks.

I went to Tsushima 2 years ago for a few days and really enjoyed it. Although I haven't stayed there, here's a link to an English website for a ryokan just outside Izuhara:

It looks like they charge 4,000 yen for room only.

As it's not a Japanese holiday during Chuseok, my guess is you should be able to get a cheap, simple room in a ryokan or minshuku for 4,000 to 5,000 yen a night.
