Hanbok- Traditional Korean Garments


Yesterday I was talking about the Korean traditional garments called a 'hanbok'. (the a is pronounced like ah and the o is pronounced with a long o)I took this pic about three weeks ago during a trip to Seoul when there was a wedding where we were having a late lunch. When I lived here about 10 years ago you would see these more often and now it is not so common. I have heard that they are a beast to put on. The underlining has no buttons or snaps but has to be tied on and it is very laborious to get it just right. The bride in this wedding was wearing a western wedding dress. It is Sunday today so this will have to suffice for my posting today. I hope everyone has a great weekend.
