Traditional Korean attire, known as 'hanbok,' is adorned with patterns inspired by nature, including colors, waves, butterflies, and flowers. These patterns hold significant meanings such as hope, luck, and good health. Hanbok is made from 'sam' fabric, which has a cooling effect in the summer and provides warmth in the winter. These unique characteristics have made renting hanbok a popular activity not only for locals but also for foreign tourists in the vicinity of Gyeongbokgung Palace. Today, I'd like to introduce you to Byulgungter Hanbok, a hanbok rental shop conveniently located near Gyeongbokgung Palace and Anguk.
