You only really need cash for street food and the odd taxi/restaurant that don't take it. But Korea is pretty cheap, especially taxi. Just bring some extra cash and enjoy!

Nothing like loading up your wallet with a couple of hundred thousand (won..) and hitting town
It's easy to spend your money fast because couple hundred thousand won seems like you have unlimited funds. Just remember 1000 won is like having $1 bill.
