How to exchange money at Incheon Airport! Naver Exchange/Exchange rate preferential treatment
I don’t have time to go exchange money, and I heard that exchanging money at Incheon Airport is expensive. What should I do? It seems that there are many people who do. We would like to introduce Naver Exchange, which allows same-day exchange and offers up to 90% preferential exchange rates.
Incheon International Airport currency exchange and preferential exchange rates, Naver Pay Exchange
Naver currency exchange is a method that I used because I did not have time to wait at the bank branch, although I can apply for currency exchange through the bank app during my busy work life after going on a trip to Europe in May this year and Guam in August.
How to exchange money on the same day
First of all, go to ‘Naver Pay’ on the Naver app or PC. You can also search through Naver Pay.

Select the currency to be exchanged and enter the conversion amount based on the purchase currency. However, the exchange rate has risen tremendously. When I exchanged money for a trip to Guam in late August, it was around 1,320 won, but today’s preferential exchange rate is 1,396.94 won. The minimum amount is 100 dollars, and the maximum amount that can be exchanged per day is 1 million won, so based on the exchange rate, the amount that can be exchanged ranges from 100 to 710 dollars.

Select the date to receive the foreign currency. You can choose within one month from the date of application. If you have specified a pick-up date, you must pick it up on the pick-up date and not before. You can apply for currency exchange on the day and receive it on the same day when you pick up the money at the Incheon Airport ATM in USD or JPY currency.
