However, the contemporary won was released in 1962, replacing the hwan which was temporarily used in Korea. The hundredth part of the won - jeon does not exist in the format of a payment tool, and is used only in mathematical accounting. Coins of small denominations of 1 and 5 won are almost out of use.
