| Reverse description | Three female figures dressed in traditional Korean hanbok are depicted playing the traditional game of neolttwigi (널뛰기), or Korean seesaw: one figure stands elevated at the left end of the plank having just landed, a second figure is airborne at the right in mid-leap, and a third figure sits centrally on the ground steadying the plank. The Seoul 1988 Olympic emblem — comprising the stylized samilta spiral above the Olympic rings — is shown in the upper centre field. The curved legend 'XXIV OLYMPIAD SEOUL 1988' arcs around the upper rim, and the denomination '25000 WON' is inscribed along the lower rim. |
