| Additional information |
KM#28 was part of South Korea's 1982 definitive series issued as the country was consolidating a new monetary identity under the Fifth Republic — Chun Doo-hwan's government had taken power following the 1979 assassination of Park Chung-hee and the subsequent political upheaval. The 1000 Won denomination was the highest-value circulating coin South Korea had produced to that point.
