TAE/GEUK,2025
On the occasion of Liberation Day on August 15, I participated in the exhibition “80 Taegeuk, 80 Dreams” hosted by TT-Seoul. To commemorate this day, I created a new design of the Taegeukgi, inspired by the spirit of independence.
National Flag Design, 2025, 210x297mm
This work is a visual reinterpretation based on the traditional yin-yang philosophy of the Taeguk symbol, reflecting the core Eastern concepts of harmony and cyclical balance. By substituting the symbolic colors of the Korean flag—red (yang) and blue (yin)—it amplifies the tension and equilibrium between opposing energies. The circular motion expanding from the center outward evokes the creation of the universe, the flow of life, and the constant state of transformation. Within the static surface of graphic design, this piece introduces a dynamic rhythm and temporality as a formal experiment. Ultimately, it serves as a bridge between traditional thought and contemporary visual language, presenting an integrated form that unites Eastern and Western philosophies.
