From what the curator told me. Back when she started work taking care of the aircraft, most of them were already re-painted into schemes slightly differing the original one the aircraft used to have. They even have an F-5A in SE Asia camo scheme but with ROKAF markings dating from the late 1980s.

Note the medium green. This was an incorrect paint. They used SAC FS 34159 green in place of TAC FS 34102 green color

One of the hues of green used on that F-5A I mentioned looks a bit more yellow green.

They probably used whatever paint they could find...
