I found this at the swap meet today. Is the pin real and what does the white mum stand for, I have seen different colors on line. Does anyone have any idea on what is written on the back?

Most often used for the famous island between Japan and S Korea, but most likely a family name here.

These patches were tack stitched on the sleeves and could easily have been ripped off during laundering (just my guess) but can't tell if yours was ever used or not...could have been an extra one or one when he makes rank and just added his name to it and presented to him, again just my guess.
