Hi folks, 3 questions:

Should I bring my cash in Dollars or Euro to Korea?

Should I change my money at Incheon or wait until I get to my city (Busan)?

Any advice for a delightful 7 hour daytime layover in Incheon?

Hi folks, 3 questions:

Should I bring my cash in Dollars or Euro to Korea? what ever is easiest for you, it doesn't really matter but if you change in a local bank they would probably prefer dollars (just a guess)

Should I change my money at Incheon or wait until I get to my city (Busan)? I would wait until I got to a local bank, usually get a better rate there, although change a small amount (50-100) in the airport so you can buy stuff while waiting or even when you get to you apartment incase it's too late for banks to be open

Any advice for a delightful 7 hour daytime layover in Incheon? Yeah, you should have just taken the ktx or bus to busan, it would have saved you thehassle as it's only about a three hour trip (30 min flight) There are free internet computers there and a jimjilbang (sauna) too, you could have a walk around for a while cos the airport is quite big.
