The sea has made history for mankind, enabling all human beings to survive and bringing some of them wealth and power. Even now, the sea has a great influence on many aspects of our lives, including politics, economy, and culture. 

The future of mankind will also depend heavily on the sea. Regarding Korea, the sea is very important to Korea in terms of economy and diplomacy due to its geographical location. 

 Thus, we need a profound understanding of the sea. This exhibition will introduce stories related to the sea shown in the designs of world currencies. We sincerely hope that this exhibition will provide a valuable opportunity to examine history, the nature, and our lives related to the sea and time to reflect on the significance of the sea
