| The Bank of Korea announced yesterday that it would finally issue 50,000-won ($53.7) and 100,000-won notes beginning in 2009 to keep up with inflation and economic expansion. |
| Quote: |
| He said the central bank has yet to decide which historical figure will be featured on the new bill but said the decision will be made by October this year. |
So, who�s going to be on the money? |

Some of my relatives probably think former General/president Pak Jung-Hee should be on new bill. I grow up in that background. |

Absent Pimp, I'd go with Hines Ward.
Let's pray that one of the only foreigners on this thing with any personality - Pimp of Korea - is chosen as the dude who ends up on the money. |

ZING!
We might get Hillary....might might might....but hey...we're working on it
Besides....It's not fair...You darn Canadians consolidated! And she only lasted FOUR MONTHS. At least when we FINALLY get a woman president, she'll theoretically be in office for 4 years...
Kim Campbell was Prime Minister of Canada for only four months, but she can take credit for a number of Canadian political firsts. Kim Campbell was the first woman Prime Minister of Canada, the first woman Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, the first woman Minister of National Defence, and she was the first woman elected leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada.

Edit: I'm assuming you are Canadian. Am I right? |

| There are lots of great women who haven't been politicians, great American and Korean women, who deserve a place among the banknotes and coins of a nation. |
