Introducing the Flag of South Korea
The flag of South Korea, known as the Taegeukgi, is a powerful symbol of balance, harmony, and the nation’s unique identity. Its striking design and deep meaning reflect both ancient Eastern philosophy and the modern Korean spirit.
Meaning
At the heart of the flag lies the taegeuk—a red and blue circle, symbolizing the balance between opposing cosmic forces: yang (red) and yin (blue). Surrounding it are four black trigrams from the ancient Chinese I Ching, each representing different elements (heaven, earth, water, and fire) and core values like justice and wisdom. The white background signifies peace and purity.
History
The Taegeukgi was first used in 1883 during the Joseon Dynasty, as Korea sought to establish its identity amid growing foreign influence. After years of colonial rule under Japan and the division of Korea into North and South, the flag was adopted officially by South Korea in 1948 with the founding of the Republic.
Interesting Facts
- The flag’s design is rooted in Taoist and Confucian philosophies.
- Each trigram also represents a family role: father, mother, eldest son, and youngest daughter.
- The proportions and colors are strictly regulated by law, emphasizing the flag’s importance.
The Taegeukgi beautifully expresses Korea’s cultural depth and pursuit of harmony.
