AB - This paper explores the historical and cultural significance of the Jinguansa Taegeukgi, discovered in 2009 during the restoration of Chilseongak Hall at Jinguansa Temple in Seoul. Hidden within the building’s walls, the flag was wrapped in 1919 newspapers and independence movement documents. Uniquely, it was created by erasing the Japanese flag and painting the Taegeuk and four trigrams over it, with burn marks still visible. The trigrams match those of the Taegeukgi used by the Provisional Government of Korea, suggesting its link to independence activities. The Taegeukgi’s production method, concealment, and discovery collectively reveal its profound symbolic value as a testament to Korea’s resistance during Japanese occupation. Its 90 year journey—from creation and use to hiding and rediscovery—embodies historical endurance and emotional resonance, establishing the Jinguansa Taegeukgi as a rare cultural heritage artifact representing the spirit and struggle of the Korean independence movement.
