The etymology for each individual word is complex, but for the phrase itself, it's a direct combination of 'what kind of', 'color', and 'to like' in a polite interrogative form. The individual words have origins tracing back centuries in the Korean language. For '색깔' (color), it's a compound of '색' (saek, from Sino-Korean ⾊) and '깔' (kkal, a native Korean word referring to hue or shade, often used in compounds like '색깔' or '빛깔'). '좋아하다' (to like) is a native Korean verb with a long history. '무슨' (what kind of) is also a native Korean determiner.
