Hanbok is a cultural Korean clothing, and is worn by Koreans specially during traditional occasions.
While its design modifies overtime, both traditional and modern Hanbok can be experience by renting one from hanbok rental shops, and sure they offer wide selection of beautiful hanbok dresses, especially the traditional colorful ones.
Exploring Gyeongbokgung Palace while wearing beautifully their cultural dresses has been really exciting, even my parents enjoyed sporting it.
How to choose your Hanbok?
When you're already inside the rental place, you will be asked of the following:
1. Top - wide selection to choose from
2. Skirt - there are lots of beautiful skirts, which fits everyone. As for the men, please go early especially if you're worried of your size.
3. Accessories - you may opt for a headband, a hand bag, shoes
4. Hair - you will be asked which style you want
Now you're ready, be certain to check out or ask the counter if you're good to go. The shop we went to, we're given a bracelet tag.
Tips:
* Come early!
* Please wear something easy, a t-shirt maybe. I was wearing a bulky sweater that time, and good thing I am wearing a sando inside. And since you're wearing something comfortable and not bulky, you may actually fit within the room - saves you from a long queue of the dressing room.
* Some has locker inside, which are free of use if you're renting, please leave your bags and other unnecessary stuff inside - cause you'll be distracted of the wide selection of dresses and you don't want to be holding your bags or whatsoever.
So I think that's it! Have fun!
