SEOUL METROBANK: How to get there?

Most of the EPS workers here in Korea are sending their money in the Philippines but apparently most of them opt to send it through second party like what they call "Tao sa Tao" or sending it to Korean Banks that probably make their lives more convenient but without thinking  how much would cost them with the service charge, the value rate of Korean won to peso, as well as the span of time their family can receive their money. Maybe some of them want to send their money in Metrobank but since they are new in this foreign land they want someone to guide them.. So here it is a guide for you guys in going to Seoul Metrobank.


Seoul Metrobank is located in 2nd floor Danam Building  120,5Ka, Namdaemun-ro Chung-ku.. How do you get  in this address:

As the saying goes "early bird catches the worm", at around 7 am  of September 23, 2012 my friend and i wanted to send our money to our love ones in the Philippines so most of the time we have to go to Metrobank to remit our money. From our place here  in Bucheon we started our journey by taking the subway line 1 going to Seoul station




From Seoul station we had to transfer from line 4 going to Hoehyun Station (Namdemmun Market). The way going to line 4 for shows in this picture.

When we had to look for subway line 4 in Seoul Station. We simply followed the path until we reached the station going to Hoehyun. Hoehyun is only one station from Seoul Station. 

After  that we got off from Hoehyun Station and we exited from gate 6







Right from that gate we simply moved forward until we reached the Namdemmun Market gate 5.
You might probably get confuse if it is your first time to go there so we got a sneak pic as your pattern. The right picture will give you the Danam Building picture. (red arrow)

And we got to Danam Tower at exactly 8: 10am










Most of you guys want to know how much is the charge in Metrobank when you want to send your money and the rate of Korean won to Peso. The teller will till you immediately the current value of your money:

Hence this blog is dedicated to the first timer and  who wants to open an account in this bank. Be sure  you have to secure your passport and your alien card registration id before going there . BE SURE ALSO GUYS THAT YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT IN METROBANK IN OUR COUNTRY( The PHILIPPINES). Having the same  Metrobank  accounts will give you  direct transaction (meaning it is (Seoul Metrobank to Phil Metrobank) and you can go online transaction (2-3hours upon sending it) or regular transaction that will take 1day. If you have a different bank the transaction would be like this:( Seoul Metrobank to Phil Metrobank to your bank)... So i hope this blog will help you alot... Next time that you decided to send your money in Metrobank,  we might bump each other there... so kitakits!!!!!!
