South Korean Won to Indonesian Rupiah

The South Korean won (international symbol: ₩, code: KRW, number: 410) is the currency of South Korea. Pronounced  [wʌn]. The national currency appeared in the country after World War II in 1945.

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.

The Indonesian Rupiah (symbol: Rp, code: IDR, number: 360) is the official currency of Indonesia. Informally Indonesians use the word "perak" ("silver" in Indonesian) in referring to rupiah. The rupiah was first introduced in the country in 1945.

However, the modern version of the currency, the so-called new rupiah is being issued since the redenomination in 1965. The exchange was made at the rate of 1000 old rupees per new one. The rupiah formally is divided into 100 sens, but physically coins denominated less than 1 Rp are discontinued. The banknotes depict national heroes, politicians, monuments, sceneries of the country, local people.
