Why shops in South Korea charge more

The KRX Gold Market trades 99.99% gold in won per gram. Shop prices per don add 10% VAT and a margin.

This page shows what the gold itself is worth at the world price. A shop, bank or mint adds its spread, the cost of making the bar or jewellery, and any import duty or tax, so the price you pay is higher and the price you get when you sell is lower.

FAQ

How much is 1 don of gold in KRW today?

At the world price, 1 don of 24K gold is worth 651,973 KRW right now. The figure updates with the live gold price; shop prices in South Korea are higher because they include a premium and taxes.

How is this price calculated?

We take the live spot price of one troy ounce (31.1035 g) of gold in US dollars, divide by 31.1035 to get the price per gram, multiply by the weight and purity, then convert to KRW at today’s exchange rate.

How many grams are in 1 don?

1 don is 3.75 grams.

Is this the price I will get when I sell gold?

No. Buyers pay less than the world price to cover their spread and refining costs, and jewellery is usually bought back by weight of pure gold only, not the making charge.
