I have a ATM card, four number pin, Visa Logo, Cirrus Network. I have used it all over Europe in small towns and large. Will I have a problem using it in Pohang South Korea.
Also what is a good mix of money to bring to SK. I was thinking five hundred in travellers cheques, 200 cash and 500-700 in the bank at home I can get with the bank card. Is this a good mix?

You have to find an "international" ATM. In the States, my Korean card works almost everywhere (but not at night Korean time), but my U.S. card only works at international atms.

I think that is a good ratio of cash/money to have.
