29. MONY IN THE FUTURE
In close future, it is likely that paper money would be exchanged with 'microchip money', which is free of problems such as being ripped easily when it gets wet and can be imitated by using color printers. and can be imitated by using color printers.
Still, most of the people might disagree with planting a metal chip inside their body, saying ' What if it is fatal? What if it's unhealthy? No, we will not take such risks. We are OK with our paper money!'

30. For those who want to use paper money even though it is weaker and harder to carry (compared to the chips), we can imagine a further-developed kind of paper money; made of tablet.
Here, tablet doesn't mean pills or the computer kind of tablet. This is a special kind of paper which is used to make cups. If you ever tried ripping a paper cusp, you will understand that, it doesn't get easily destroyed.
Well, it is true that nowadays money is not made with typical A4 papers, but tablet will make the money more resistant to outer irritations.
Also, government facilities can place money determining machines that releases a screechy sound when fake money gets near.
Even if we pour a lot of effort in developing ordinary money,
most of the experts claim electronic money (such as the microchip money) will take place gradually.
This sort of money has two types; IC card type and network type.

31. First, IC card are same as E- wallet. this mean IC-card is money.
It have Ic chip on plastic card and we can buy thing for this.
Also, E- wallet is like a T-money every time you can charge it on bank.
.network E-money is money for payment on delivery.
It can be found through the Internet
However, E-money has many problem. Is E-money when electronic currency forgery due to several practical issues need to be addressed in order to be a number of issues.
We can see E-money is realization these days.
also, you can buy things with no money and in the future we don't need paper money.

32. IC (In the electronic signals that control electronic device) which is a plastic card embedded chip is used, futuristic and electronic money anytime, anywhere without the need for cash to buy things they want and can ride buses and school supplies and toys if one e-card will be able to buy. Then we don’t have to worry about losing the money. When calculating with the electronic money cards,we should know password because we need to enter a password. Even if you lose it accidentally , when you report the loss, you may take reissued again.
These days, we can find e-money easily. Toll cards used in high-pass or a bus or a taxi only used when using public transport, such as transportation card are those examples. If the present highpass card or transportation card are used in the future, paper-shaped money will be disappeared. We consider the distant future of the Joseon Dynasty era and coins (copper), of silver (a) and thought to be the remains as relics will remain the paper currency too
