The flag dates from
1882 & became official in 1883. Some sources even state it
could date back from 1874. It was slightly different from this
version. Korea was occupied by Japan from 1910 till 1945. The
Japanese yoke fell in 1945 but a war started in 1948 betwin the
North (supported by the Soviet Union) & the South (supported
by the USA). This war ended in 1953 with the ignominious
partition of Korea. On the Taeguk (name of the flag) white is
for peace & purity, the Yin Yang represents concepts of
creation & development thru duality (so they say). The four
Kwae symbolize the four seasons, the four compass points &
the four elements. The present pattern was officially specified
on 15 OCTOBER 1949, adopted on 25 JANUARY 1950 & shifted on
21 FEBRUARY 1984.

MEANING OF THE FLAG :

AS USUAL WIKIMERDIA IS JUST SHIT :
WikiMERDIA

"Wikipedia is wrong in
describing the red flag with the circular ying-yang
design as a royal standard dating to 1800. Vexilla
Mundi, Hubert de Vries, Nozomi Kariyasu and I regard the
design as being a royal standard of King Gojong about
1882.
