I've been getting up to date with my vaccinations before venturing out next month with the only one left to get being Japanese Encephalitis. I've been searching around online and called several clinics whom have all quoted me about �160! I know I should probably just bite the bullet and get it done but with the vaccination being given regularly in SK and it obviously being more common over there, would it be any cheaper to get it whilst out there? Does anyone have any experience with this?

I'll be going to Ulsan so if anyone knows of a clinic I can go to let me know! I'm planning on making a trip to Japan, and more rural areas of SK too so I think it's important to get, but if I can save some money by getting it there that would be nice Smile

Edit: Thought you meant you were going to Japan...much much cheaper at Korean clinics from price you quoted.

Cheers.

I think I paid 40k (or less) at my local clinic in Seohyun (Seoul Clinic).
You would probably pay 2 or 3 times more at one of the "international" clinics in Seoul.

I think we paid 15k for my daughter to get hers at the local pediatrician.

Thanks for the help guys! I'll definitely get it when I get out there, I'm sure I'll be able to find a clinic easily Smile
