The Science and Art of Money at the Bank of Korea Museum 🇰🇷

#AustraliaFlightEvent #BankofKorea #koreatrip #museum This afternoon, I visited the Stamp Museum and the nearby Bank of Korea Currency Museum to explore the scientific principles and artistic designs hidden in currency!!! At the Future Currency Exhibition Hall on the 2nd floor, the holographic banknotes and virtual currency experience using blockchain technology caught my eye. In particular, I was able to catch a glimpse of the possibilities of future currency by holding a transparent metal coin made with 3D printing in my hand!! It was so amazing 📌 Points for solo travelers Recommended experience: Design your own currency → Create a virtual currency pattern using the touch screen and print out the actual sticker (10 minutes, free) Hidden spot: Vault reproduction space on the first basement floor → Open and close the 1-ton vault door (photos required) Recommended snack: Cafe "Coin Bread" (5,500 won) near the museum → Coin-shaped cream cheese filling bread 🚨 Notes The vault experience is only available for groups of 5 or more → Ask the staff to join your group A USB is required to save your currency design (cannot be rented by the museum) Be careful that the coin bread is sold out after 3 PM At the anti-counterfeiting technology experience zone, I discovered hidden microtext on the banknotes with a microscope. After the experience, I received virtual currency with my name on it and shared it on SNS, and my friends were surprised, saying, "It looks like real currency!" The currency design hand mirror (12,000 won) that I bought at the museum store has now become my must-have fashion item. But it's so expensive. LOL...
