Tipping

- Tipping is not customary in Korea.
- Restaurants: oftentimes staff will decline tips, but there may be a tip jar in western restaurants due to the large number of international travelers, so if you are inclined to tip that is the most appropriate method.
- If you are planning to tip hotel staff, do so in an envelope and leave it with the front desk when checking out to be respectful.
- It is wise to not insist on tipping. If a tip is offered, it must be in local currency.
