Logo comparison
Pepsi vs Korean Air
Compare the archived 2008 Pepsi globe with Korean Air’s former red-blue Taegeuk. The resemblance concerns historical circular symbols, not the airline’s 2025 monochrome redesign.
Korean Air
Former red-blue Korean Air Taegeuk, before the March 2025 identity launch.
Comparison: shared structure. Artwork is shown in its own proportions. File publication dates are not assumed to be logo introduction dates.
What looks similar?
- Both selected symbols place red and blue regions inside a circular boundary.
- A flowing white separation creates a sense of movement within each disc.
What makes them different?
- Pepsi’s white band sweeps across the globe. The Korean Air symbol has a three-part, rotational Taegeuk structure.
- Pepsi introduced another identity in 2023; Korean Air unveiled a monochrome identity in 2025. Substituting those current versions changes this comparison.
