The Korean 100,000 won banknote, which will be issued in 2009, will have images of key figures of the provisional government of the Republic of Korea, Mugunghwa, the national flower of Korea, Daedongyeojido (a map of Korea) and others. The Bank of Korea said that it decided the subjects to be printed on the design of the large denomination bill on Friday, and that it will accept the opinion of the general public for the five days from Dec. 7 through its website(www.bok.or.kr).

 

The new 100,000 won banknote will have an image of Baek Bum Kim Gu, a symbol of the founding fathers of Korea, on the obverse side, with images of key figures of the provisional government of the Republic of Korea and Mugunghwa under the theme of independence and patriotism. The new note will use the photo of the figures taken to commemorate their return to Korea at the building of the provisional government of Korea in Chungking, China on November 3, 1945.
