The series numbers are expressed with Korean letters used in alphabetical order

[mhardin2413]

the banknotes of the South Korean won don’t possess the year of issuance of the series like in other currencies. Instead, the notes of same face value of different series are designated with the Korean letters in alphabetical order.

[Coindude]

Hi Moon I think that Intaglio Printing is how the notes are dated Amarillo

North or South Korea? Either way, no idea whatsoever.

 

The new 50000 Won is the first Korean banknote that features the portrait of a woman. Definite progress if you ask me.
