Korean flag, Korea Airlines ticket envelope and Pepsi Cola label

 

The spiritual symbol of the Korean people is being manipulated for commercial purposes. Pepsi recently changed their famous logo in a move known as "Project Blue". It was changed worldwide except in Korea. Is Pepsi the National Drink of Korea? Are bar codes becoming modern trigrams? Could this represent a harmony between spiritual and corporate ideals, or a co-opting of ancient power?
