It seems not a just size label. What is the meaning behind the symbols?
It's the imprint of the Apex Tiger Seal. It represents the unquenchable ABOVALLTOPOWER. It is guarded by the Sashin (Four Deities of the East,) arranged in a clockwise formation beginning from the top right.
East : Cheongryong(The Azure Dragon) — The Genesis of Ascension
The Cheongryong of the East is the lord of all scaled creatures, governing Spring and the element of Wood. As Eastern dragons control the weather, thunder, and lightning, the Azure Dragon also symbolizes these elemental forces. And as a day starts with sun rising from the East, it signifies the birth of the Ubermensch.
South: Jujak (The Vermilion Bird) — The Fiery Will
The Jujak of the South is the lord of all winged beings, presiding over Fire and Summer. The abundant Yang energy emitted by the Jujak symbolizes unquenchable Will. It visualizes absolute tenacity of Ubermensch who burns themselves in the pursuit of their goal.
West: Baekho (The White Tiger) — The Powerful Fortitude
The Baekho of the West is the lord of all beasts, a spiritual entity far beyond the realm of ordinary tigers. Possessing eyes that pierce the very essence of all things, it commands the Wind, Earth, Rock, Metal and Autumn. As the most brave and robust among the Four Deities, the Baekho is an object of worship that repels misfortune and demonic entities, symbolizing the courage and invincible mental strength for Ubermensch.
North: Hyeonmu (The Black Tortoise & Snake) — The Essence of Self-Mastery
The Hyeonmu of the North is the lord of all shelled creatures, depicted as a serpent's tail entwining a tortoise's body. Governing Winter and Water, it holds a deeper Yin energy than any other being. The union of the serpent—symbolizing Yang (Male)—and the tortoise—symbolizing Yin (Female)—represents self-completeness akin to the Ouroboros; it symbolizes Ubermensch perfectly governing oneself without being shaken by external forces.
