Under Five Flags è il vero resoconto delle esperienze di Hackchan Rhee in una varietà di governi e circostanze politiche. Nonostante tutto, ha visto che le persone condividono non solo le caratteristiche più fini dell'umanità, ma anche le correnti sotterranee oscure. Nato a Pyongyang, in Corea, prima della seconda guerra mondiale, e alla fine trasferendosi negli Stati Uniti, Rhee ha vissuto sotto il dominio di Giappone, Russia, Corea del Nord, Corea del Sud e Stati Uniti. Le sue esperienze gli hanno insegnato l'inutilità del socialismo e la devastazione che una "economia pianificata" può avere su una società.
