I'm going home to Australia shortly. I'm totally clueless when it comes to certain technological things! So please help!

I want to use my Korean laptop when I go home. It's a DELL model about 2 years old and I'm pretty sure the black brick-like box on the cable is it's power supply or converter or something. All i need to buy is a plug adapter? If I do this will my laptop fry when I plug it in in Australia? What about smaller items such as a digital camera?

Everything should be fine. Australia uses the same voltage as South Korea. You just need the plug adapter.

Australia has the same voltage so all you need is a plug adaptor. I recommend but 1 five plug multibox here and taking it home with you that way you only need to buy one adaptor

Enjoy the coming summer

thanks guys for this info! I guess the adapters would be bought at Yongsan? Any place closer to Itaewon?

You should be able to pull the plug out of the box. It should come out easily, then simply slip in an Australian version of the plug. It should be either a two or three pin female lead (that goes into the box.) You might be able to get one for nothing from an old device like a printer. I used the plug from my old PS1.
