Hanbok is ane of the cardinal elements of Korean identity that distinguishes Korea from other countries only about the world. Hanbok is a traditional shape of clothes worn inwards Korea inwards the past. It symbolizes Korea. It's distinctly Korean too doesn’t await similar whatever other type of wearable from anywhere else inwards the world. The beautiful Hanbok colors too patterns each symbolizes something that makes Hanbok a exceptional affair to wear. Hanbok is actually comfortable too practical to wear, too, to a greater extent than too hence than other countries' traditional forms of attire. We mean value Korean Hanbok would accommodate whatever individual who wears it, whether they're skinny or fat, because Hanbok blueprint is somehow pose out too doesn’t bound the body, making it suitable for anyone's trunk shape.
Hanbok attire differs according to sex, class, profession, social condition too season. In general, in that place are 2 principal components to Hanbok.

Differences betwixt traditional Hanbok too modern Hanbok
As nosotros were participating inwards this event, nosotros learned that each color too pattern on a slice of Hanbok attire represents something. For example, the colors too stuff used to brand a item Hanbok reverberate the social condition of the individual wearing it. Rich people wore Hanbok that was made of brightly colored silk too high-grade lightweight materials inwards the warm weather condition too of obviously too patterned silks the residual of the year. Commoners wore Hanbok that was made of durable too cheap fabric, similar hemp or cotton, inwards earth-toned colors. On the other hand, modern Hanbok ignores this distinction, too people of all social classes select vibrant colors that appeal to them.
Hanbok colors are decided according to the "five colors theory," obangsaek in Korean (오방색). It refers to the theory of yin too yang too the "five elements" of metal, fire, wood, H2O too earth. The most pop colors reverberate hues from nature, including jade green, indigo, white, red, blue, dark too yellow. The color blood-red symbolizes proficient fortune too wealth. Thus, it's oftentimes used for a woman’s marriage ceremony dress. The color dark symbolizes infinity too the fountainhead of all creation. Black is oftentimes used for a man's hat. The color xanthous tin also stand upwards for the centre of the universe, too it was oftentimes worn past times royalty.

This plant for 2 colors or fifty-fifty only ane color.” We mean value this is actually true.
