If Japan has a traditional costume of Kimono and China has a cheongsam, coming to the land of kimchi will immerse you in beautiful Hanbok.
Have you seen these traditional costumes before? If not, please listen to my presentation to gain a better understanding!
The first is the Hanbok, which is the traditional kimchi costume. Both men and women wear this type of clothing. The main colors of Hanbok are white, which represents purity and integrity, and red, yellow, blue, and black, which represent the five elements of the universe: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Women's hanboks are made up of outerwear (jeogori) and a long skirt (chima). Men's hanbok consists of outerwear and pants with wide legs and pockets (baji).
Hanbok is also quite sophisticated, with both men and women wearing outerwear such as gil (the largest part of the shirt), git (the decorative silk band for the collar), dongjeong (the white collar part), and goreum (the yarn), belt. Traditionally, the shirt's left hem should be placed in front of the right hem. The opposite is true if there is a funeral. Hanbok is classified as a daily wear, a ceremonial dress, or a special costume depending on the occasion. Hanbok, regardless of how it is worn, provides the wearer with privacy, formality, harmony, and sophistication.
This costume is worn not only at festivals but also on weekdays.
We hope that, even if you haven't seen these costumes in person, you can get a sense of the shape, material, and meaning of each type of costume with different countries...
