The Korean flag was designed Chinese!
When we look at the Korean flag, it is all Chinese elements, its name is "Taiji Banner", it was originally the flag of the Korean Kingdom, and later split into two countries, and South Korea inherited this flag.
The Korean flag was designed by Ma Jianzhong, a diplomat of the Qing Dynasty, and when the Kingdom of Korea applied to daqing to use the yellow dragon flag of Daqing, the Qing Dynasty must have opposed it.
Later, the North Korean emissary submitted a national flag to Ma Jianzhong, imitating a red Taiji in the middle of the Japanese flag. Ma Jianzhong looked at it, this is also not OK, it is easy to be confused with the Japanese flag.
Ma Jianzhong believes that the flag of one country does not have to be designed in the style of other countries. So he used a white background, the middle Taiji diagram, the outer use of Bagua, and the Taiji diagram yin and yang fish with black and red colors. The gossip is conspicuous in black, which also corresponds to the eight roads of North Korea, which North Korea readily agrees.
Later, North Korea took into account the opinions of Japan and Britain and turned gossip into four guagua. However, the national flag reads "The Flag of Goryeo of the Great Qing Dynasty" shows that the power of the Qing Dynasty still existed at that time.
After World War II, the Korean Peninsula split into two countries, and South Korea inherited the flag, but removed the text on it.
