Introduction

The website at https://tiermaker.com/create/asian-capital-flags has a list of flags for Asian capitals including this of Pyongyang which is yellow on white bedsheet. But this doesn't yet constitute a proof of existence.

I found this Reddit post from what appears to be a dead link now: https://www.reddit.com/r/vexillology/comments/n8f5ki/flags_of_north_korea/
It shows the same yellow on white emblem. The Nampo symbol might not be official; but it is common throughout the city. And even though the Juche Tower is a symbol of Pyongyang (and of course, is seen on train station signage; etc, I guess it really can't be confirmed).

Juche Tower Emblem

The emblem of Pyongyang depicts the Juche Tower in a yellow ring.
It was first seen on an official touristic guide, published by the people's government.

The text on the official touristic guide appears to say something like Hero of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea.

I ported the image over to Google image search to see if there were other results, and Gemini said the text says, "Democratic People's republic of Korea, Pyongyang."
