Bring Korean won in cash. A regular T-money card is bought and topped up with cash. Foreign credit cards generally don't work for this. Cash or card: the details.
Where to buy one

- Tmoney Town, T-money's service center, is on the 1st floor of Seoul City Tower by Exit 10. It sells cards, tops them up, and refunds large balances.
