How much is 1 meal in Korea?

As per my experience, the price for one whole meal (that is rice with viand on a regular eatery) ranges from KRW 6,000 - KRW 12,000 (roughly USD 6-12). Fast food price also falls almost the same range. For street food, average price is from KRW 3,000 - KRW 5,000 (roughly USD 3-5).
