Explanation 1 · Principles of Creation

Summarizing verse


    Embodying principles according to their nature.

    The harmony between Heaven and Earth
    originates from a single energy,
    with Balk-I-Eo(EoBalk:Yin-Yang) interacting
    to create a cycle of beginning and end.


    All things between Heaven and Earth
    have form and sound,
    but their essence is unified,
    connected through reason and numbers.


    When creating Jeongeum,
    the shapes of the characters
    were designed by imitating nature,
    and additional strokes were added
    to indicate variations in sound intensity.
