한복

What are those characters in the title? If you think they are Korean characters.. Yes, you are right! You probably have seen them a zillion times because they look so familiar and they are everywhere when you watch your favorite k-dramas. Umm OK, but then what do they mean or how to read 'em?

The characters shown above are read hanbok :)




i really don't know why the floral pattern on the shiny garment doesn't look tacky at all.. it is still a gorgeous hanbok ~



I got really interested in hanbok. I hope that one day I could own ones, hehe. What makes me really into hanbok are the gorgeous patterns on the fabric and the various choices of the color, they are looking cute and playful yet very classy and artistic. 

As an Indonesian, I'd like to introduce you all the traditional clothing of Indonesia called kebaya. I'm proud of kebaya but to be honest I'm not a big fan of the garment, it's kinda itchy when you wear it.. So, if I am to wear one of the two traditional clothes, I think I'll choose hanbok over kebaya.
