Putting my Hanbok on

Putting on Hanbok

Wearing a hanbok can be a lot like wearing a wedding dress. Anyone who has been a bride or bridesmaid might remember the awkward help the bride pee moments! There are just so many layers, especially in winter when I’m wearing long underwear under it too. It doesn’t help that Korean bathrooms usually have wet floors as well. It can be a bit difficult to manage.

As I was quite sick on Lunar New Year, I needed extra help getting my hanbok on. Usually I can do most of it myself and just need help with the outer skirt and top, but this time I needed my husband to help with everything.

Hanbok and Lunar New Year

This is a video about getting my hanbok and Lunar New Year (설날).

I’m really happy and thankful to my parents-in-law for getting me one. It was a really good experience.

 

Also, I haven’t posted this video on the blog yet, only the social media, but in case you missed it: Here is Mr Gwon caught in the act of singing songs from the new Disney movie Frozen!
