Incheon airport rate sucks. 788 for sgd. When I went myeongdong to change I got 820.
My advice is change only the bare minimum you need in sg and change the rest in myeongdong

just a quick question .. first time travelling abroad . will it be silly if i change sgd to usd to krw in korea to get the best exchange rate ? im talking about like 5k sgd .

or change sgd to usd in sg then xchange to krw in myeongdong which i heard has the best rates compared to singapore .

will changing sgd to USD in sg reap higher then changing sgd to USD in korea ?

Every time you do a currency exchange you lose the spread to the agent. I thinks its better to do a direct exchange rather then SGD - USD - KRW.
