Chong myong, yong gi, chi hye
Explanation:
Serenity=chong myong. Courage=yong gi. Wisdom=chi hye. This is how the terms are pronounced. In order to see them in Korean script please look at the following references: NTCs Compact Korean & English Dictionary by B.J. Jones and Gene S. Rhie pg. 304 shows Korean script for 'serenity', pg. 76 shows script for 'courage'. Another reference is the Langenscheidt Pocket Dictionary English>Korean>English which has 'courage' on pg. 360 and 'wisdom' on pg. 663. I'll see if i can find you an online reference from Sigma Institute. HTH.
