Reverse description A dynamic scene depicts a traditional Korean tug-of-war (줄다리기) in which a team of figures dressed in traditional costume strains collectively against a thick rope, led by a flag-bearer holding aloft a pennant at the left. The composition conveys vigorous movement and is rendered in high relief against a mirror-like proof field. The Seoul 1988 Olympic Games logo appears in the upper right field. The legend XXIV OLYMPIAD SEOUL 1988 arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 5000 WON is inscribed along the lower exergue in Latin characters.
