Detail
A new design for the My Own Stamp is being issued to enable the people to experience more diverse enjoyment. The My Own Stamps issued at this time feature the sunflower, clover and a golden pig, with a new type of sheet comprising nine stamps and nine pictures also introduced. The My Own Stamp featuring the sunflower is issued in two different types. One is a sheet composed of 20 stamps and 20 pictures. The other is a 14-stamp promotional sheet, into the middle of which, a large picture or image can be inserted. Both the yellow sunflower that matches well with the color of the sky and the tiny bee on the sunflower petal makes the stamp’s overall impression bright and cheerful. The My Own Stamp featuring the clover is issued in the newly attempted form of a 9-stamp sheet. Clover has a lovely pure Korean name of “Tokkipul” meaning grass for rabbits. The white clover flowers that were used in our childhood to make flower rings and flower bracelets are also depicted on the stamp. You can express your wishes for good luck and happiness through a stamp showing a 3-petal or 4-petal clover. The My Own Stamp featuring the golden pig is also issued in the form of a 9-stamp sheet. This is the year of the golden pig, which is said to come around only every 600 years. The stamp features a happy-looking and lovely baby pig. It would be a wonderful gesture of pleasant greeting to present this golden pig that is said to bring wealth and good fortune.
