Opening a bank account in South Korea

South Korea has been closely monitoring its own banking system for a long time. It is enough to produce an identity card in many private financial institutions and you will obtain personal settlement account within 20 minutes. State institutions adhere to a different strategy, thus the investor will need to prepare an expanded list of documents and confirm his income.
