At first glance, the power plug used in Korea looks just like the one used in most of Western Europe, known as the "Euro-plug". But the Korean plug is actually subtly different. The pins are 4.8 mm in diameter vs 4.0 mm for the Euro plug. Does it matter, and should you care if you are going to the Seoul IETF? Probably not, a Euro plug will fit, but if you want a more mechanically stable solution, plan to use either: - A *grounded* European plug (these have 4.8 mm pins also) or - A native Korean plug [The Apple World-Wide adapter kit contains both a Euro and a Korean plug] For the gory details, look at: http://www.sony.jp/ServiceArea/Voltage_map/bigmap/ao.html ... and click on the "A" and "B" plugs. Yes, the Sascom will work. Yes, you can buy Korean plugs in Seoul and add them to your own power cable. And you can probably buy a Korean power cable too if you search around. So, who's planning a day or half-day trip to the DMZ? There are lots of tour operators who offer trips.
