While driving around Seoul, we ended up passing by the National Research 
Foundation's headquarters in Seocho District (Seocho-gu). There I noticed the 
NRF flag flying alongside the South Korean national flag. According to the NRF 
website, the Foundation is "entrusted with an important historic mission to 
enhance the capacity of academic research and science and technology as the 
determinants of national competitiveness and the quality of life, and to foster 
the valuable future assets of human resources."

The flag of South Korea's National Research Foundation features the 
foundation's logo centered upon a white field, with the name of the agency in 
white Hangul characters along a blue stripe at the bottom of the field.
