| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in deep rose-pink on a light ground and carries the bold stylised lettering "The Bank of Korea" occupying most of the upper field, with a rosette vignette centred above. The denomination is expressed in three scripts: the Hanja cartouche 壹 圓 at the lower left, the Hangul 일 원 at the lower right, and the English word "ONE" centred beneath the main inscription, with "WON" repeated along the very bottom margin. A fine wavy-line guilloche fills the background throughout, framed by an ornamental border of repeating geometric motifs. |
| Reverse lettering | The Bank of Korea 壹圓 ONE 일 원 WON (Translation: The Bank of Korea, One Hwan, One, One Won, Won) |
