Monami 153
A symbol of daily post-war life in Korea, Monami's basic pen has continuously been on sale since its inception in 1963[6] and is recognizable by nearly every Korean.[7] In 2009 this pen was noted by the government-run Korea Design Foundation as a design that has significantly influenced daily life in Korea.[6] 3.3 billion have been sold, and the figures are still rising.[8]
The pen's designation can be explained by the fact that the 153 was only the third product the company produced and that it originally sold for 15 won,[9] the price of a newspaper or a bus ride at the time.[10]
While the quality and price of this remarkable pen have risen,[11] the design remains unchanged.
Production bases and facilities
Monami has factories at Ansan, Korea, and Rayong, Thailand.[4]
