Can I walk into any bank and get a currency exchange without having an account set-up, or do I have to go through a place where they specialize in that?


Are there any places other than banks and hotels can do legally change currency in Korea? (I never figured whether the Itaewon FCEs were legit or just "allowed")

After reading this article, I fear that some things may change at KEB.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970204661604577186472022127882.html

Looks like a US company had the majority of shares for KEB and that may be why it is so foreigner friendly? Now, they are being forced to sell their majority and let Hana Bank take over.
