The flag of the Republic of Korea, also known as the
Taegukgi (also spelled as Taegeukgi, literally "supreme ultimate
flag"), has three parts: a white rectangular background, a red and blue
Taeguk, symbolizing balance, in its center, and four black trigrams selected
from the original eight, one toward each corner.
The flag's background is white, a traditional color in
Korean culture. White was common in the daily attire of 19th-century Koreans,
and it still appears in contemporary versions of traditional Korean garments,
such as the hanbok. The color represents peace and purity.
