National Human Rights Commission of the Republic of Korea Symbol of National Human Rights Commission of Korea The symbol of National Human Rights Commission of Korea (NHRCK) is designed in a simple logo type to signify the mandate and credibility with greater aesthetic sophistication appropriate for the status of the NHRCK as the national institution for the promotion and protection of human rights. Blue, the color believed to represent ‘creation’ and ‘life’, and in particular ‘spring’ according to the Yin-Yang Theory, was used in an attempt to represent the unique identity of the NHRCK in its commitment to human beings. It also takes a form that combines a dove and a hand to embody the message of ‘peace’ and ‘tolerance’. The land-shaped bird is seen with a small circle, the most elemental shape, to communicate the ideas of ‘center and concentration’, ‘diversity and positive-ness’, ‘sun and light’, ‘harmony and tolerance’, and ‘fairness’.
