The metadata here contains a genuine puzzle: the note carries a 1959 issue date yet the printing date recorded is 30 April 1945 — before the liberation of Korea, before partition, and before either the Bank of Korea or its predecessor had authority over a southern Korean currency. That discrepancy almost certainly reflects a catalog data error, possibly conflating printing records from an earlier colonial-era issue with a later note in the same Pick series. P#17 is attributed to the South Korean Central Bank of Korea under its transitional Korean-language designation, Chosun Chungang Unhaeng, which itself signals the brief institutional overlap between the post-liberation period and the formal establishment of the Bank of Korea in 1950.

The 225 × 95 mm format is notably large relative to later Korean issues of the same denomination.
