The National Emblem of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea bears the design of the Sup'ung Dam under Baekdu Mountain and bearing the beaming light of a five-pointed red star, with ears of rice forming an oval frame, bound with a red ribbon bearing the inscription "The Democratic People's Republic of Korea" in Hangul characters.
The emblem follows the basic design guidelines of the emblem of the Soviet Union adopted in many other countries including North Korea, which clearly indicates the relations between the communist ideology and the foundation of the country at the beginning of the Cold War.
