Korean Traditional Clothes : Hanbok

Hi all...........
Today I'm going to write about Hanbok.

Hanbok for woman

Yes right, this is the traditional clothes from Korea. Nowadays Korean people are not wearing hanbok all day long like the people from Joseon era. But Korean people still keep their Hanbok to be used for special times and another festive day in Korea, such as for wedding ceremony, religious service, and etc.

Hanbok is well know for having
many attractive colours. The clothes have many different colours and it is colored using natural dyes. Moreover hanbok is also well know for its design in which the upper part is narrow and the lower part is wide. What i really like from hanbok is the skirt part that is so wide and flexible so that i feel so graceful using hanbok. Not to mention all the time i walk using hanbok make me feels like dancing because its wide and flexible skirt.




Parts of Woman Hanbok:

On the top of our body, we will use "jeogori". Jeogori is the top part of the clothes that is formed along the boundary under the armpit. The front area is made longer to cover the chest area. Next, on the upper part, the woman will use "chima". Chima is a kind of skirt which is
round and expand. That skirt lengths from the chest and ranging up to cover the feet.







Part of Man Hanbok:

Jeogori for Men, in general, is slightly different compared to jeogori for women. For men, the size of jeogori is from the shoulder up to waist and even longer. Meanwhile, on the upper part of our body, the man will use "Baji". Baji is a pants that will be used to cover the upper part of man's body. The form of this pant is changing over the time. 

The main point is i really feel beautiful using this beautiful Hanbok.
