"Sold Out in a Day": Additional Pre-Orders Open for Premium 'Money Calendar'

Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation will begin additional pre-orders for its premium money calendar.

The corporation announced on December 2 that the first batch of the “2026 Moneymade Premium Money Calendar,” launched on November 11, sold out completely within a day of release, prompting a second round of pre-order applications.

The money calendar is an upcycled calendar made by repurposing currency by-products generated during the money manufacturing process. It has drawn attention for its storytelling concept, which reinterprets Korean culture and history through the figures and landmarks depicted on banknotes.

The pages of the money calendar are made from eco-friendly paper using currency by-products, allowing the “money powder” to be visible to the naked eye. The storytelling concept is further enhanced by incorporating the symbolism of wealth associated with currency.

Thanks to this, the money calendar received an explosive response after its launch, with all available units selling out within a single day.

In response, the corporation has secured an additional 4,000 units for the second round, and starting December 2, will accept pre-orders for 2,000 wall calendars and 2,000 desk calendars. The wall calendar is priced at 22,000 won, and the desk calendar at 18,000 won. The second batch will be shipped sequentially starting December 24.

The “Lucky Calendar,” released alongside the money calendar, is currently sold out.

Sung Changhoon, President of Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation, stated, “All available units of the money calendar sold out much faster than expected in a short period of time. We will continue to expand our range of upcycled cultural products using currency by-products as ESG items, so that people can participate in eco-friendly consumption in their daily lives.”
