[edit] Copy?

The entire paragraph was copied from Bank of Korea website:

"The Bank of Korea issued its first notes during the Korean War (1950 - 1953) to prevent the country being flooded by Bank of Chosŏn notes by North Korea. It also carried out currency reforms on three occasions during and after the Korean War...."

[edit] New and smaller Korean Banknotes!

You may refer to http://times.hankooki.com/lpage/200504/kt2005041817290710160.htm for the changes in both size and color of the new Korean Banknotes. Also, you may refer to http://times.hankooki.com/lpage/biz/200512/kt2005121317330611870.htm for the new 5000 won design.

[edit] Redenomination plans

Anyone got any details on that? —Nightstallion (?) 20:31, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Translation needed

Can someone help translating "발행발행" that I found on the BOK website? Using some simple online dictionary and some guessing from Chinese cognate, I would guess 발행 = issue and 발행 = discontinue. But I need someone who actually speak the Korean to verify that. Thanks. --ChoChoPK (球球PK) (talk | contrib) 12:12, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Tentative answers supplied on Portal talk:Korea. Specific link would be helpful. -- Visviva 05:13, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
