South Korea commemorates the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Korean Peninsula on Friday. To honor the Korean independence heroes, The Korea Herald created a mosaic based on the 'Denny Taegeukgi,' the oldest known version of the Korean national flag preserved in Korea, using photographs of 252 recipients of the Republic of Korea Medal, Presidential Medal and Independence Medal kept at the Ministry of Patriots and Veterans Affairs' National Institute of Korean History Archives.
