Annyonghaseyo(안녕하세요) dear readers ! I'm Eunho(은호) from India. I love Korean Dramas and learning new languages. I have a Korean learning experience of 1 year.


Coming to the topic, that is, Hanbok (Hangeul:한복)(Hanja:韓服) which literally means Korean Clothing is a Korean Traditional Dress. Surprisingly, this dress is known as Joseon-ot (Hangeul:조선옷) (Hanja:朝鮮옷) in North Korea (북한).



But is the Hanbok actually worn in modern-day Korea? Well, the answer is partly yes and partly no! See, Hanbok was actually a common daily-life attire in the Korea society about 100 years back.


Hanbok can be classified to many types according to its purposes. Ceremonial (Hanbok) dresses are more common in the two Koreas now-a-days. These dresses are worn on child's first birthday, a wedding or even on a funeral, Chuseok(주석)(Korean Thanksgiving) or on Seollnal(설날).


This traditional dress has undergone many changes from the initial records of it. Especially the Hanbok for women has changed as compared to Hanbok for men which has seen a really minimal change.


The Korean Hanbok is a really gorgeous dress and I wish if I could try it one day. Since this is my first blog, I'll end it short. Like and comment if you want more detailed and interesting Korean culture related blogs. Share it if you found it interesting!

But in the same way my kids collect Panini stickers during a link World Cup, collecting is a numbers game only in relative terms. I collected Swatch as a teenager. link I've also met people with their own runways who'll only buy when the price tag has so many link zeroes it seems to be written in binary code. Both of us are, or were, collectors.

In fact, such link an link endeavor really helps to justify what otherwise would be a punchy price point for a steel Omega sports model, but I think you could still consider this to be a value proposition. It costs less than many Rolex sports link watches and presents true mechanical innovation. Innovation which Omega says has been in the works for the past 10 years.

In October of 2009, Cirque du Soleil CEO Guy Laliberté took up his AP on Soyuz link TMA-16, destined for the Space Station. To our knowledge, it’s the watch with the highest retail link price to have ever been worn in space. That's chump change compared to the 35 million dollar price tag of the trip for 10 days and 21 hours in space. In this official NASA group photo, you can spot the watch on link his wrist onboard the ISS.

On Tuesday, when Jacek from Tropical Watch posted a blurred out wristshot to his Instagram of what was clearly a Paul Newman Daytona, I knew it had to be a crazy example. It takes a special watch to get someone like him excited enough to link tease us like this. A day later, the watch was properly posted for sale and everything became clear link – for sale is one of the link best Paul Newmans you will ever see.
