Thank you,.

Answer 1

lol 6 figures lets say 100,000 won would only be about 100 us dollars.

1US dollar is about 1000won.

Answer 2

Depends what you do in Korea.Are you single?

Do you have somewhere to stay? More info.....

Answer 3

i've study in korea for two years with a salary of 400,000 won a month and its just enough for the student...meaning you can live poorly with that salary...

minimum salary here is around 1,000,000 won

so for you to live in a comfortable life, maybe 1,500,000 to 2,000,000 won would be enough.

Answer 4

it depends where your living.. I mean most korean apartment never go below $1000 or 1,000,000 won a month... so I would say something that makes at least 2,000,000 won a month would be sufficient.  

Answer 5

A salary of 2,000,000 Korean Won would be pretty good. The exchange rate is $1=1,011 but it has been in flux quite a bit lately.

Answer 6

Salaries will vary in different locations and depending on your qualifications and employment setting.More information, tips and help at http://moreaboutsalary.blogspot.com/
