The
photo features gorgeous models dressed in hanbok during last year's Busan
Hanbok Day.
For
the 2015 Busan Hanbok Day, scheduled for Sept. 12, wear a hanbok (traditional
Korean clothing) and walk along the beach.
Organized
by regional college student voluntarily, Busan Hanbok Day kicks off in the
Haeundae Beach area on Sept. 12. The event was created in an effort to
disseminate the beauty of the hanbok, which is already highly recognized
worldwide.
Hanbok
Day first started in Jeonju in 2012, and has spread out throughout the nation -
in Daegu, Ulsan and Daejon - garnering a stellar response.
On
Busan Hanbok Day, which runs from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Sept. 12, there will be
plenty of fun and diverse sights to see, including fashion shows and
performances given by hanbok-clad artists.
To
participate in the fun-packed event, dress up in the eponymous costume and
visit the venue on Haeundae Beach.
Tourists
and locals can not only view the different styles of these colorful outfits,
but rent one and try it on.
The
event was positively received last year, when more than 1,000 people joined in
and tried on hanbok in a splendid gradient of colors.
Busan
Hanbok Day is a participatory event in which volunteers gather together through
social media.
This
year, experiential programs will also be on offer. There will be a number of
booths and flea markets on site, selling calligraphy and postcards.
The
event promotes the excellent quality of ancient Korean attire to move it to the
mainstream.
