Ask Real Koreans
Are there exchange booths at Incheon Airport open 24/7?
✅ Answered by a real Korean — A Korean local
Oh, you’re planning a trip to Korea? Summer here can be brutally hot, though — brace yourself for that. ㅜㅜ
Yes, you can exchange money 24 hours a day at Incheon Airport. Woori Bank is on the 1st floor and Kookmin (KB) Bank is on the 3rd — though it’s worth double-checking on airport.kr, since counter locations can shift.
That said, airport exchange rates usually aren’t great. My honest tip: change only enough for your immediate transport at the airport, and do the rest at a bank in the city. Any downtown bank will take good care of you.
It’s a bit of a Korean trait, honestly — when a foreigner asks for help, most of us feel we should be kind and lend a hand. (A few exceptions, of course. ^^)
Welcome to Korea — glad you’re coming!

오~ 한국 여행 계획중인가요? 그런데 여름은 너무 더울텐데. ㅜㅜ
인천공항에서 환전 24시간 가능합니다. 우리은행은 1층, 국민은행은 3층에 있구요.
그런데 공항은 아무래도 환전이 비싸요. 급한 교통비만 공항에서 환전하시고, 나머지는 시내에서 하세요.
시내에 있는 어느 은행이라도 친절하게 맞아 주실거예요.
한국 사람들의 특징. 외국인이 뭘 물으면 일단 친절하게 도와 줘야 하는 마음이 있거든요. 물론 아닌 사람도 소수 있겠지만.^^
한국 방문 계획 환영합니다. ~~
