Stacks of ten thousand Korean won bills for purchasing U.S. dollars and Japanese yen are piled up at the headquarters of the Korea Exchange Bank (KEB) in Seoul December 22, 2008. The South Korean won fell about half a percent against the dollar on Monday as the U.S. unit kept support globally, but trading was slow with many market players leaving early for Christmas holidays.
