With the research assistance of Seong Myeong Su, I am going to make an attempt at a 16th century (Joseon: 조선) Korean man’s outfit, or hanbok (한복). My goal will be clothing appropriate for daily wear for an aristocrat or official.

The items for this outfit will include the following:

• Jeoksam (적삼) – undershirt
• Baji (바지) – pants
• Beoseon (버선) – socks
• Jikryeong/jingnyeong (직령) – coat with straight collar
