Taskmaster has appeared in comics such as’Captain America’,’Ant-Man’,’Spider-Man’, and’Deadpool’ in the past, and is scheduled to appear as a villain in the Marvel cinematic universe movie’Black Widow’ to be released this year.
Already in Marvel Comics, there are several Korean heroes such as’White Fox’, a female hero belonging to the NIS,’Amadeus Joe’, a genius Hulk,’Silk’, a girl of Taekwondo’Crecent’, and’Mark Sim’ transforming into an imaginary animal hatch. However,’Taegeukgi’ is the first to have such a strong Korean color from the name.
However, there are opinions that “the small and torn eyes of’Taegeukgi’ seem to reflect the typical Western prejudice toward Asians.”
The Korean netizens who saw this, “I wish I could change my name and design a little,” and “I really like the Marvel series, but I look forward to seeing Korean characters. The name Taegeukgi has a little awkward feeling, but I hope it comes out nicely.”, “It’s nice that our country’s status has increased.. Ami Han”, “I can see how American kids felt when they first saw Captain America”, “ The Taegeukgi will be an opportunity to be known in the United States.”, “If this was the 80s, it would have been 100% a ninja character.. Korea has grown a lot.”
