The lowest denomination of banknotes in Korea is 1000 Won. But I only know how to count numbers up to 999! Well fear no more, because Mallo is here to help! With this lesson, you won't have any problems dealing with numbers in Korea.

A Bit of a Lesson

In this lesson, we will be covering the powers of 10. This will come in handy when you want to deal with Korean currency, which has a lot of 0's! Luckily, these numbers are all the same for Sino and Native Korean.
