South Korea signs deal to pay more for US troops after Trump's demand The new deal must still be approved by South Korea's parliament, but it would boost South Korea's contribution to 1.03 trillion won ($890 million) from 960 billion won in 2018. Good job Mr. President for demanding they pay more since payments haven't been incre...... The payment has gone up steadily - from 488.2 billion won in 2001 to 680.4 billion won in 2005 and 790.4 billion in 2010. link

It looks like the Won won. Even taking into account the fact that the Won lost ~5% of its value relative to the USD from 1/31/18 to 1/31/19. Payments went down by ~7% → so we receive fewer of those "losers"  |
