Close up of a bright red pleated chima or wrap-around skirt and a black silk jeogori or blouse shirt that make up the traditional Korean hanbok dress.


While visiting the Changdokgung Palace we ran into a group of teenagers who were all dressed up in traditional hanboks (women and men's styles), as apparently they can get into the palace for free if they wear their traditional costume. They were all giggly and very willing to have us take their pictures. I loved the bright colors.
