Hi here's your name
Did you visit anywhere else than Seoul?
Why did you go to Korea in the first place?
I see that Red is more popular than Blue for sparring gear:P (according to the poll)
That's very interesting. I always thought the Blue would be more popular.
If you look at the Korean Flag, you will see the upper is red and lower is blue. Growing up in Korea, we've always associated red with communist and north korea, and blue with south.

Thats true, in one way...
Red is assosiated with communism, and blue is assosiated with democracy. But in the SOUTH KOREAN flag(taegukee), the TaeGeuk (Red/Blue Yin Yang) represents the difference between heaven(blue) and earth(red).
Also there is a similar symbol; Sam-TaeGeuk. Here the colours are Red(Earth), Blue(Heaven) and Yellow(Humans).
