  • GOLD -- Signifies Earth, from which a plant sprouts and takes root as the taekwon-do foundation is being laid.
  • GREEN -- Signifies the plant's growth as taekwon-do skills begin to develop.
  • BLUE -- Signifies the Heaven towards which the plant matures into a towering tree as training in taekwon-do progresses.
  • RED -- Signifies danger, cautioning the student to exercise control and warning the opponent to stay away.
  • BLACK -- Opposite of white, therefore, signifying the maturity and proficiency in taekwon-do. Also indicates the wearer's imperviousness to darkness and fear.
