Korea is highly cashless — cards and contactless (including mobile pay) are accepted almost everywhere, including taxis and convenience stores. Carry a little cash for traditional markets and small stalls.

Tipping is not customary or expected in South Korea — prices are as listed, and leaving extra can cause confusion. Good service is standard.

Seoul Central Mosque — Korea's first and main mosque, opened in 1976 on a hill above Itaewon — the centre of Muslim life in Seoul, with a large Friday congregation and the halal food quarter at its foot.

Airport & venue prayer rooms — Incheon International Airport has dedicated prayer rooms in both terminals, and a growing number of malls, hotels and convention facilities provide musalla; outside these, prayer space is limited, so plan ahead.
