metadata.value: Since ancient times, people have known that color affects the physiological functions and
  emotions of an individual. Colors represent certain symbolic meanings in many nations and
  people often use colors to exchange their thoughts and feelings. Over the course of their use,
  thanks to the rich experience and creative activity of the popular masses, expressions with
  the symbolic meaning of color appeared in different languages. Thus, these expressions reflect national customs, life, ideas, and the interests of a given country. Therefore, in different
  national languages, expressions containing the word of the same color designation can have
  different symbolic meanings. If the speaker is not well aware of these differences, it may cause
  the listener to have other feelings than what the speaker intended. Expressions with color
  vocabulary occupy an important place in the Korean and Russian language. Currently, there
  is a noticeable interest in studying the Russian language in the Democratic People’s Republic
  of Korea (DPRK), and the same applies with the Korean language in Russia. However, there
  are very few scientific papers devoted to comparing color expressions in the two languages. It
  is beneficial to conduct a linguocultural comparative analysis on symbolic meanings of color
  vocabulary in Russian and Korean, which makes it possible discern the semantic nuances of
  words for color. This article contributes to better understanding the history, culture, and traditions in both Russia and DPRK by analyzing the cultural and linguistic aspects on the expressions which reflect the conception and consciousness of different colors and their usages in
  Russia and the DPRK.
