I used to live in Korea for 14 years. We'd pop over to Japan when we could (when we had saved up enough money to do so!). I think it was 1 USD to maybe 105. Tons of Japanese would come over to Korea to shop. Now, it's near 1 to 160 .... which is insane. We will be heading over in 2026 for Cherry Blossoms.
Good to hear. I'll be there in a couple of weeks!
Where are you coming from?
me tooooooo! Going to Seoul first for a week then 2 weeks in Japan

Maybe it will hold out for you...be interesting to see
Going in autumn 2025 hope it stays that way
The causes for it run pretty deep and the trend has been going on for five years so you might be in luck.
Dates, beer and nuts plus more, thats mad cheap!
