 |
|
I have $1000 in US dollars that I didn't exchange when I got to Korea. It's in my hands right now.
What's the best way to send it back to America without much surcharge. (I need to send it all back). What steps do I need to go through?
My bank is Nonghyup. |

Take it to the bank and do a wire transfer. The only money you'll save is not having to convert it from won.
OR, a riskier step but practiced by many:
Buy traveler's checks and send them home securely for deposit in your USA account.
OR, meet me on the corner and I PROMISE to get it into your account. |

| Unless you need the money in your account at home, just keep it. Next time you travel overseas (America or anywhere else), take it with you and use it there. YOu'll hve to get your Korean Won convertd to US$ before you travel again anyway. |
