USD equivalent = KRW price ÷ ₩1,357, Upbit's own KRW-USDT price, so the premium is vs USDT, not vs the bank dollar rate. Binance price: the spot SUI/USDT market. SUI is #10 of 214 coins by combined Upbit + Bithumb 24h volume (₩66.8B).

SUI kimchi premium FAQ
What is the SUI kimchi premium today?
SUI trades at a 0.14% discount on Korean exchanges against Binance right now (Upbit -0.14%, Bithumb -0.14%). The figure refreshes about once a minute from the Upbit and Bithumb public tickers.
How is the SUI kimchi premium calculated?
The SUI KRW price on Upbit or Bithumb is divided by the Korean USDT price in won (₩1,357 on Upbit now) and compared with the SUI price on Binance ($1.142, spot): premium = KRW price ÷ USDT/KRW ÷ Binance price − 1. A venue counts only when it traded at least ₩500.0M of SUI in the last 24 hours.
Can you arbitrage the SUI 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 SUI deposits or withdrawals, and the premium can close before a transfer lands. Nothing here is financial advice.
