Older banknote (detail) from the Bank of Korea, 10 won. Of interest is the depiction of a turtle ship with a dragon-like head (even more visible when enlarged). These ships were built on behalf of Admiral Yi Sun-sin and were first used successfully against Japan in 1592. I also have a model of such a ship in my collection.
