The logo for APSR 2022 was inspired by the ‘Saekdongjeogori’ (Hanbok), a Korean traditional attire. The harmony of the colorful stripes symbolizes the Asia-Pacific countries.
The logo represents a variety of countries in the region, which come together for cooperation and advancement in the field of respirology so that members of APSR go above and beyond the current limitations and make a great leap forward.
Hanbok is the traditional Korean attire characterized by simple lines, light colors and elegant silhouettes. It is light and spacious, giving it a “one-size-fits-all” design. Although no longer worn daily in favor of Western-style clothing, hanbok is still often seen during special holidays such as Lunar New Year and Chuseok, at Seoul’s royal palaces, and in Korean historical TV dramas.
