I read there is a possibility in the near future to commercialize graphene cards.

Yeah, I feel really weird using cash now. I still do it for anything under 5000won, but many people don't. I saw a guy pay for a slim can of Pocari Sweat the other day with his credit card (under one dollar).

It also saves 100 won if you pay with a credit card or T Money card for subway and local bus.

would u guys overspend with just a card?

but ever since i started using iphone and various internet or phone notifications, it helps me keep track of my accounts, but i dunno if others will face such problems. just like some people prefer to read from papers and not from tablets, and some people who prefer to deal directly with a person face to face or on the phone, rather than via machines or pre-recorded automated phone services. i certainly dun like to buy train tickets in another country, scratching my head over which types of fares to choose. it all depends if it works out to be simple and safe, or just all too complicated.
