North Korea National Flag - information on several DPRK flags

Our North Korea National Flag page describes the meaning of the DPRK flag. Here we show a variety of different official DPRK flags and their meanings.

Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) Flag

The Workers' Party of Korea (KWP) flag consists of a hammer and a sickle (used by communist states to represent the proletariat and the peasantry) and a traditional Korean calligraphy brush to represent the intellectual class. When hung vertically the emblem is in the middle of the flag whereas when horizontal it is on the upper left side.

Juche Flag

The Juche Philosophy was developed by Kim Il Sung showing a shift from traditional Marxism-Leninism and thus, unlike the soviet satellites, total independence from the Soviet Union.

Korean People's Army Flag

The Korean People's Army flag is similar to the National Flag, with the red star being surrounded by a golden circle with leaves. The numbers in gold 4.25 represent the foundation day of the KPA, April 25th (1948).
