The Breath of Joseon Finance Encountered at Woori Bank Museum🇰🇷

#AustraliaFlightEvent #WooriBank #museum #Myeongdong After visiting the Currency Museum yesterday afternoon, I visited the Woori Bank Museum and vividly experienced the traces of finance in the Joseon Dynasty!! At the Sangpyeong Tongbo Special Exhibition on the 2nd floor, it was impressive to directly hold the Sangpyeong Tongbo, the first legal tender from the reign of King Sukjong in 1678!! Although it weighs only 3.5g, I felt the historical weight that moved the transactions of the merchants of the time. I felt like I traveled through time when I held a replica of a coin with the Sangpyeong letters in my hand and participated in a VR experience that recreated the old market transactions. Haha! 📌 Points for solo travelers Recommended experience: Promissory note writing workshop → Writing Joseon-style transaction documents with a brush on Korean paper (material cost 2,000 won, 15 minutes) Hidden spot: Reproduction room of old safe on the first basement floor → Photo zone where you can open and close the safe door in the 1900s (recommended photos by lighting angle) Recommended snack: Museum cafe "Yeopjeon Croffle" (6,500 won) → Explosion of condensed milk cream inside coin-shaped bread 🚨 Notes VR experience closes at 4:30 PM (same-day reservation required) Gloves must be worn when experiencing the Sangpyeong Tongbo replica The security pattern of the completed promissory note workshop can be confirmed with a UV light "Joseon's credit, contained in promissory notes" In the exhibition hall of original promissory notes from the 19th century, I found a transaction document with the handwriting that said, "Please lend me 100 sacks of rice with this one piece!! I wrote my friend's name on the promissory note I made at the workshop and gave it to him, and I felt the weight of economic promise with the heart of an old merchant. I felt it. I bought the Sangpyeong Tongbo key ring (9,800 won) at the museum store and hung it on my wallet. It was also fun to write my wish on a piece of paper and put it in the coin slot.
