There is also sometimes seen a three part version, what does that extra yellow bit signify? Chris 23:59, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Shouldn't 태극 be taegeuk? I thought that was the current accepted transliteration. The article uses the word taegeukgi twice, suggesting the vowel should be eu. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by RisingSun96815 ( talk • contribs) 02:34, 25 April 2007 (UTC).

I understand that the Taijitu preceded and inspired the Taegeuk and that the Taijitu is often but not always split vertically as opposed to the horizontal split of the Taegeuk but what I don't understand is why they aren't just rotations of one another.
Sam Taeguk: Yellow: life Blue: earth Red: heavens. Sam Taeguk: is Korean symbol it represented in Korean Buddhist temple. Not Korean fan. During Koryo Dynasty Sam Taeguk represented Korean/ Korean buddhist symbols. It was modern day Korea that Koreans began to use " Sam Taeguk" as in fan. It has much longer history it has linkage to Korean buddhist temple. In front of Korean buddhist gate has Sam-Taguk design. In Korean buddhist temple in Seoul it has Sam Taeguk design. So its not only Korean fan design. So misinformed information about Sam-Taeguk linking with Korean fans needs correction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kp1korea ( talk • contribs) 04:03, 15 March 2009 (UTC)

Korean Sam Taeguk is Uniquely Korean. Not Chinese. Chinese have no saying regarding to " Korean Sam Taeguk" design. Red, Yellow, Blue color samtaeguk is Korean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by KoreanSamTaeguk ( talk • contribs) 09:50, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
"If the symbol is portrayed according to how humans view the world, red on the top would repel the earth and blue on the bottom would repel the heaven; this would break the harmony of nature."
Then why is that exactly how it's portrayed on the south korean flag? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.250.128.84 ( talk) 13:58, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
In China, Taijitu represents Yin and yang, it origined in ancient Zhou Dynasty. Can't you see the relationships between Taijitu and Taegeuk? In 7th century BC, there is not even a country called "Korea". In the Taegeuk, they say Taegeuk was created in 7th century BC, is this a joke? S. Liu ( talk) 08:20, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
PS: In 7th century BC, the country in today's China named Zhou Dynasty, it is just a alias of China in ancient. But in the same time, is there a country in the Korean Peninsula? As I know, the first country in Korean Peninsula was founded by Wiman of Gojoseon. You can read this entry. I respect the Korean culture, she is a very important part of the East Asian culture, but you guys should respect your own culture. You can not respect her by making history, but learning history.

Why "some" Koreans claim what doesn't really belong or originally from their ancestors? By claiming any other cultural traits or values as yours doesn't make your country "great", from the name of your people the "Han" = Koreans, and to this Taegukgi which is obviously part of Chinese religious and philosophical system for thousand of years you claim as originally yours because your delusional authors says so, even article from tour2korea.com website states that Korean Buddhism is much better than Indian and Chinese Buddhism, are you kidding guys? by claiming others culture as yours and saying great things about your nation doesnt make you righteous or great! revise this article, kamsahamnida! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.54.42.146 ( talk) 00:38, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

This article currently says, "In the compound of Gameunsa, a temple built in 628 during the reign of King Jinpyeong of Silla, a stone object, perhaps the foundation of a pagoda, is carved with the taegeuk design." It then says, "In 2008, a 1400-year-old artifact with the taegeuk pattern was found in the Bogam-ri tombs of Baekje at Naju, South Jeolla Province, making it the oldest taegeuk found in Korea, predating by 682 years the taegeuk at Gameunsa." Unless my math is wrong, those dates don't make any sense. The Bogam-ri taeguk would date to 608, which is certainly not 682 years before 628. 2604:2000:EFC0:2:7C16:4E2E:E4E5:E5E8 ( talk) 03:52, 15 July 2016 (UTC)
We need to be careful of reporting vs. endorsing claims or interpretations. We also have " Yin_yang_in_Celtic_art" at commons. Needless to say, there is no "Celtic yin yang". What this means, rather, is "interlocking spirals in Celtic art", which spirals are then compared to the (Ming era) taiji diagram which also has interlocking spirals. I presume we have a similar situation here. We find interlocking spirals in Korean artifacts, which are interpreted{{ by whom}} as early forms of "taegeuk". The thing is that even in Chinese sources, the term taiji isn't associated with spirally designs of this kind prior to the 16th or 17th century. Earlier (Song era) taiji-diagrams look completely different. What we need to report here is, what is there earliest known reference to the term "taegeuk" in reference to such a design. Otherwise we are just pattern-matching spirals. -- dab (𒁳) 12:20, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
