How to Pronounce Prices in Korean410

When it comes to discussing prices in Korean, there are a few key things to keep in mind. First, the currency unit in South Korea is the won, which is written as "₩" or "KRW". The won is divided into 100 jeon, which are written as "전".

When pronouncing prices in Korean, the general rule is to say the number followed by the currency unit. For example, 1,000 won would be pronounced "cheon won" (천 원). 100 jeon would be pronounced "baek jeon" (백 전).

There are a few exceptions to this rule. First, when the number is less than 10, the currency unit is usually not pronounced. For example, 5 won would be pronounced simply as "oh" (오). 1 jeon would be pronounced as "han" (한).

Second, when the number is 100 or more, the currency unit is usually pronounced as "man" (만) instead of "won". For example, 100 won would be pronounced as "baek man won" (백만 원). 1,000 won would be pronounced as "cheon man won" (천만 원).

Finally, when the number is 10,000 or more, the currency unit is usually pronounced as "eok" (억) instead of "man". For example, 10,000 won would be pronounced as "man eok won" (만 억 원). 100,000 won would be pronounced as "십만 eok won" (십만 억 원).
