What is South Korean Won (KRW)

The South Korean Won (KRW) is the official currency of South Korea. It is symbolized by "₩" and is subdivided into 100 jeon, although the jeon is not commonly used in everyday transactions. The Bank of Korea is responsible for issuing and regulating this currency.

The Korean economy is known for its advanced technology and exports, with industries such as electronics, automotive, and shipbuilding leading the way. As a result, the Won is widely used in international trade and finance, influencing foreign exchange markets.

One important factor to note about the KRW is its floating exchange rate system, meaning its value relative to foreign currencies can fluctuate based on market conditions.
