ENSO kimchi premium: Upbit & Bithumb vs Binance

How much more (or less) ENSO costs on the Korean exchanges Upbit and Bithumb than on Binance: the KRW price converted to USDT at the Korean USDT/KRW price, against the Binance spot price. From the same snapshot as the kimchi premium table.

On Upbit, ENSO last traded at ₩1,355, which is $1.001 at Upbit's ₩1,353 per USDT, against $1.004 on Binance: a 0.25% discount. In other words, ₩1,000,000 spent on ENSO on Upbit buys about ₩1,002,500 worth at Binance prices, so it is cheaper to buy in Korea than abroad right now.

ENSO kimchi premium FAQ

What is the ENSO kimchi premium today?

ENSO trades at a 0.25% discount on Korean exchanges against Binance right now (Upbit -0.25%). The figure refreshes about once a minute from the Upbit and Bithumb public tickers.

How is the ENSO kimchi premium calculated?

The ENSO KRW price on Upbit or Bithumb is divided by the Korean USDT price in won (₩1,353 on Upbit now) and compared with the ENSO price on Binance ($1.004, spot): premium = KRW price ÷ USDT/KRW ÷ Binance price − 1. A venue counts only when it traded at least ₩500.0M of ENSO in the last 24 hours.

Can you arbitrage the ENSO kimchi premium?

Not easily. Korean exchanges take won only from verified local bank accounts and South Korea limits moving won abroad, which is why the gap can last. Transfers take time, an exchange can suspend ENSO deposits or withdrawals, and the premium can close before a transfer lands. Nothing here is financial advice.
