Gold in South Korea, answered

How is this price worked out?

From the international gold price in US dollars per ounce, converted at the day's rate, divided by 31.1035 grams, then scaled by karat (21K is 21/24 pure). It is the same formula Pockito uses in Wallet.

Which karat is quoted in South Korea?

Pure gold is 24K, and jewelry is mostly 18K or 14K. South Korea quotes gold per don (3.75 g), so this page shows the price per don beside the price per gram.

How often does the price change?

This page updates once a day, from the same daily feed Pockito uses. Gold markets close at weekends, so weekend prices barely move.

Why does a shop charge more?

A shop price adds workmanship, the shop's margin and sometimes tax to the metal price, so it runs above this figure. Use this page to judge a quote, not as a shop price.
