Description: | Hanbok NYC - Hanbok (South Korea) is the traditional Korean dress. It is often characterized by vibrant colors and simple lines without pockets. Although the term literally means "Korean clothing", hanbok today often refers specifically to Joseon Dynasty and is worn as semi-formal or formal wear during festivals and celebrations. Modern hanbok does not exactly follow the actual style worn in Joseon dynasty since it went through some major changes during 20th century for practical reasons. |
