Korean flag

Yin-yang national emblem

The Korean flag, known as the Taegukgi, is the national flag of South Korea.

It features a white background with a red and blue yin-yang symbol (taeguk) at the center, surrounded by four black trigrams in each corner.

The design represents balance, harmony, and the universe's opposing forces.

The Korean flag flew at half-staff after the president's death.
