Beauty of Hanbok: Chance to experience authentic Korea
If you want to feel authentic Korea while staying here, I recommend you to try on Hanbok which is Korea’s traditional costume. Because Hanbok embeds Korea’s culture, history, and spirit in it, you can truly experience Korea culture. Also, Hanbok is Korea’s cultural heritage which represents Korea’s distinctive style with its unique designs and graceful colors placing special emphasis on the line.
For that reason, Hollywood stars who visited Korea are no exception for trying on Hanbok.
Chance to try on different hanbok costumes for free!
Seoul Global Cultural Center offers you chance to experience various type of hanbok for free.
They have a wide variety of traditional costumes that include uniforms worn by the guards during the Guard’s Changing Ceremony in Deok-su palace, ‘Yong po’ that only king wore.
