A group of artists is expected to create controversy by decorating the national flags and images of more than 200 countries participating in the competition in samurai style in time for the opening of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. They tried to combine the spirit of the Olympics with the Japanese culture of admiring the samurai, but it is hard to accept the image of linking the taegeuk mark and the samurai. Furthermore, will we be able to accept Queen Myeongseong’s painful history of being assassinated by samurai backgrounds?
