100th Anniversary of the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee : 2020


2020-June-30 : This commemorative stamp for the 100th anniversary of the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee includes images of three sports disciplines hosted in the early days of the Joseon Sports Society: baseball, football and tennis. From athletes in blue, red and white representing the symbol of Taegeuk and Koreans as `the people of white clothes,` you can see the value of modern sports, which served as a symbol against imperial Japan 100 years ago. We hope this commemorative stamp provides an opportunity to reflect on 100 years of proud history of sports in Korea – KoreaPost
