A mailbox used on Sorokdo Island in Goheung, Jeollanam-do, in the period immediately after liberation. In 1984 it was transferred from the Postage Stamp Division of the Ministry of Communications to the Postal Museum, and it has been on display there since the museum opened in 1985. The cylindrical iron mailbox bears the postal emblem of the time in relief; although its red paint has faded and it has developed some rust, it retains its original form well, giving it great value as a historical record.
