South Korea's earliest banknotes were printed in Japan under a wartime emergency arrangement — the Korean War broke out just five years after Japan's defeat and occupation, and the nascent Bank of Korea had no domestic printing infrastructure capable of producing currency at scale. The National Printing Bureau in Tokyo, which had printed Imperial Japanese currency for decades, was contracted to produce these early won notes at a moment when Seoul itself would change hands four times.
The Japanese printing origin was not advertised. Given the political climate of 1950, it was a practical necessity that few in either country wished to dwell on.
