"Hanbok"? What's that?





Hanbok is Korean traditional clothes. Nowadays, Koreans wear Hanbok only on the specific festivals, such as New Year, or on the important ceremonies, like weddings. In the past, there were many kinds of Hanboks from the royal to the civilians. In Korea, the class(階級) and the age are significant. Therefore, it is simple to understand the identities of different Koreans from their clothes. For example, if you see a Korean wearing the glorious, shiny, beautiful Hanbok with countless accessories, he or she may belong to the upper class.
    
Although there are various kinds of Hanboks, we can find all of them have similarities. For females, whether she is a queen or a civilian, Hanbok includes a short jacket and a long skirt. Besides, some of female Hanboks have another cloth in front of the jacket, especially for queens, servants and doctors in the palace, and so on. On the other hand, for males, the skirt is replaced with the trousers.
