The 50 Jeon was issued as part of South Korea's Third Currency Reform of June 1962, a monetary restructuring pushed through by the military junta that had seized power the previous year. The reform replaced the Hwan with the Won at a ten-to-one rate, and small-denomination notes like this one were produced in quantity to ease the transition at a time when coin production could not keep pace with demand.
Printed domestically by KOMSCO rather than contracted abroad — as many earlier Korean notes had been — this issue reflects the junta's deliberate push toward self-sufficient currency production infrastructure.
