How is the KRW/JPY rate calculated?
As a cross rate through the US dollar: both currencies are quoted against USD, and the KRW/JPY rate is derived from those two quotes. That is standard practice for pairs that are rarely traded directly.
Why is 1 KRW less than 1 JPY?
Because one Japanese yen simply carries more value than one South Korean won – 0.118092 JPY to 1 KRW today. Unit value and price level are different things: a currency with big numbers is not a cheap country, and the cost-of-living pages on CityCost show the difference.
