Why Gold Prices Change
Gold prices in Gwangju follow international XAU spot first, then convert into KRW using the live USD/KRW exchange rate. That means Korean local prices can move even when dollar gold is flat if the won weakens.
Seoul's Jongno market usually acts as the national benchmark, while city-level differences mainly come from dealer spread, VAT treatment on jewelry, and making charges (공임). KRX investment gold remains a separate, more tax-efficient benchmark path for some buyers.
For wider context, compare South Korea gold rate, review historical gold prices, and monitor live currency converter.
