The Korean National Flag, the symbol of the Republic of Korea South Korea, is named "T'aegukki." The name was derived from the taeguk circle in the center.
The circle is divided into two equal parts in perfect balance, representing the yin and yang. The red upper part is the yang and the blue lower part is the yin. In the Orient, the two parts represent the great cosmic forces which collide and depart in perfect balance and harmony.
The taeguk circle stands for the eternal principle that everything in the universe is created and develops through the interaction between yin and yang, thus symbolizing creation and development.
The four trigrams surrounding the circle denote the
process of yin and yang going through a spiral of change and growth.
That means heaven (ko'n) 
at the
upper left, earth (kon) 
at the
lower right, water (kam) 
at the
upper right, and fire (I) 
at the
lower left.
The white background of the flag represents purity of the Korean people and their peace-loving spirit. The flag as a whole is symbolic of the ideal of the Korean people to develop forever together with the universe.
