Heck! I am about to get my behind to South Korea and purchased a netbook for my journey. Then I suddenly realize/remember that they use different outlets... Can I just get an adapter or do I need to buy a netbook in SK?

Answered my own question. Goes up to 100-240 volts. Now to find a converter. Are they easy/cheap to find?

Yes, they are easy to find, the big 3(Lotte Mart, Homeplus, and EMart) carry them.

But the cheapest is 9000 won, and the better ones are around 17000 won. If you knew what you were looking for I bet you could get it for half that in the states.(assuming that is where you are coming from).

If I had thought of it sooner I could have gotten one for super cheap on Amazon, but WalMart has them, too.
