The South Korean currency, the won, is currently at 1,400 a dollar. It was 950 to a dollar a year ago, meaning that it's lost over 40% of it's value in a relatively short period of time. That's not conducive to a positive flow of tourists to LA. However, if you wanna go to Korea, things are cheap there!</p>
