SUN kimchi premium: Upbit & Bithumb vs Binance

How much more (or less) SUN 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, SUN last traded at ₩23.300, which is $0.01725 at Upbit's ₩1,351 per USDT, against $0.01717 on Binance: a 0.45% premium. In other words, ₩1,000,000 spent on SUN on Upbit buys about ₩995,600 worth at Binance prices, so Korean buyers are paying up for it. That is above Upbit's volume-weighted premium of +0.27% across 184 coins, so SUN is richer in Korea than the typical coin. SUN ranks #176 of 210 by Korean 24h trading value (₩718.2M).

USD equivalent = KRW price ÷ ₩1,351, Upbit's own KRW-USDT price, so the premium is vs USDT, not vs the bank dollar rate. Binance price: the spot SUN/USDT market. SUN is #176 of 210 coins by combined Upbit + Bithumb 24h volume (₩718.2M).

SUN kimchi premium FAQ

What is the SUN kimchi premium today?

SUN trades at a 0.45% premium on Korean exchanges against Binance right now (Upbit +0.45%). The figure refreshes about once a minute from the Upbit and Bithumb public tickers.

How is the SUN kimchi premium calculated?

The SUN KRW price on Upbit or Bithumb is divided by the Korean USDT price in won (₩1,351 on Upbit now) and compared with the SUN price on Binance ($0.01717, spot): premium = KRW price ÷ USDT/KRW ÷ Binance price − 1. A venue counts only when it traded at least ₩500.0M of SUN in the last 24 hours.

Can you arbitrage the SUN 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 SUN deposits or withdrawals, and the premium can close before a transfer lands. Nothing here is financial advice.
