Colors of dobak
Traditional dobaks were all white in color to symbolize oneness with the universe "han." Some organizations or schools have adopted different color schemes on seams and lapels of their dobaks to differentiate between the color belt ranks, black belt degrees, and instructor status. Some organizations or schools use flashy uniforms for their demonstration teams. This degrades Taekwondo as a martial art and turn it into an entertainment spectacle.
