go to www.xe.com to find out XD it changes alot.
South Korean people are as nice as everybody else in this world and they're rude as everybody else in this world XD (not to be prejudice, I'm fully korean and I don't like gloating saying 'oh korean people are so nicee wahhh! they have no mean people omgajshda!' which is not true! there are mean people in korea too XD)
Well, I'm sure there are programs in korean that have foreign exchange, try checking online.
a couple of international schools should have foreign exchange.

Last time I went, 1000W is equal to $1.
It might fluctuate from time to time.
South Korean people are uhhh...hm they're very busy people most of the time. In the city anyway. So be prepared to be like pushed around and not hear a sorry :x
But there are nice people too, really, like the post above me said "South Korean people are as nice as everybody else in this world and they're rude as everybody else in this world ". It's pretty much true, but really it's like NY there, busy busy busy. Rude at times >.>
And yeah I've heard of programs, like my dad said theres a foreign exchange study abroad thing where for an year or just during the summer you can go and theres dormitory there and you study korean, live in korea so you can learn it faster with fellow foreign students and what not. maybe you can search on google and find some.
