While broadcasts often highlight elaborate hanbok designs, there's also a growing trend of introducing modern hanbok that prioritizes practicality for everyday wear.

 

These designs are expected to be showcased at the upcoming 'Hanbok Store.'

 

It would be wonderful if both Koreans and foreigners could have the opportunity to experience the charm of hanbok.

In this exhibition, there will also be a display centered around Korean summer clothing.

 

It's a place where students' handwoven fabrics and traditional attire made from ramie fibers are introduced.

 

For a long time, fabrics like ramie and chunpo (a blend of silk and ramie threads) have been cherished as summer materials.

 

The exhibition will showcase their colors, elegance, and various applications throughout history.

 

 

In this sweltering summer season, if you're up for something unique or a cool spot to check out in Seoul, why not head over to COEX and catch this special exhibition to make your day extra awesome?
