| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two boys dressed in traditional Korean hanbok garments are depicted in the central field engaged in the folk game of top spinning (paengi-chigi): one child kneels in the foreground setting a top upon the ground, while the second stands behind him in a dynamic pose, whip raised aloft to strike and spin the top. A small spinning top is visible between them on the ground. To the upper left, the official emblem of the 1988 Seoul Olympics — comprising the stylised Samtaeguk symbol above the five Olympic rings — appears in the field. The circumferential legend reads 'XXIV OLYMPIAD SEOUL 1988' along the upper border, with the denomination '5000 WON' inscribed along the lower border. |

This piece belongs to the Bank of Korea's 1988 Seoul Olympics commemorative program, one of the most extensive coin series ever produced for a single Games — spanning dozens of individual types across multiple metals. The spinning top motif draws on *paengi-chigi*, a traditional Korean game with documented history stretching back centuries, selected deliberately to foreground indigenous Korean culture for an international audience at a moment when South Korea was aggressively projecting its national identity on the world stage.
KM#71 is among the more modestly collected pieces from the series, largely overshadowed by the higher-denomination gold issues.
