Obverse

On the obverse of the 2024 1 oz Gold Chiwoo Cheonwang Medals, you will find Doggaebi, a mythical creature similar to a hobgoblin in Western folklore, believed to offer protection. Historically, Koreans would display Doggaebi effigies to safeguard their homes from evil.

Reverse

The reverse design of the 2024 South Korean Gold Chiwoo features Chiwoo brandishing a weapon with his right hand, leading naval forces forward. Behind him is Draco, a member of the Zi:Sin, symbolizing the Year of the Dragon in the Zodiac. The Zi:Sin often fight beside Chiwoo in their mythological battles.

History

Chiwoo is believed to possess supernatural abilities, including the power to control the weather, summon storms, and create fog, which he used in battle to disorient and defeat his enemies. In Korea, Chiwoo Cheonwang is more than a mythological figure; he is a symbol of national pride and resilience. His image and legacy are invoked to inspire courage and unity among the Korean people.
