Thanks for watching! 🌲🍄
Huzzah that's my birthday! Best present ever, including this video. Korean fashion has evolved so much. 💚And sadly source materials are so hard to find in countries with historic heavy political unrest. 😢 So many places where we have lost so much information. Asia, Europe, everywhere. My own Polish ancestors were moved around a lot just before and during WW2. They lost everything physical and only had stories and scars to show when they came to America. 💚Thank you for this! Happy Christmas from Arizona USA 💚
I think that your "500 Years of..." playlist is quickly become a goldmine of globe trotting information and inspiration! I appreciate the look at the warp and weft of the designs and the diagrams of the asymmetric cuts.
@@ericalarochelle3779 thank you Erica! I feel really excited about the future of this series. I love the asymmetrical design elements and cuts as well, they’re lovely
Korea made the history of the ancient Chinese in Chaoxian 朝鮮 (Today Korea territory) into a historical TV series. Brainwashing foreigners. Korean tradition is a beautiful standard (Hanbok) for pure white clothes and women clothes to show their nipples (Westerners Record history photos). Ancient Korean traditional costumes are pure white (the Korean people have been known as the "White clothes ethnic 白衣民族-history record name" since ancient times), Korean women show their nipples to represent the beauty. All Women use their heads to move everything.This reflects the ancient Korean people and thoughts. Historically, Korean women's clothes show their nipples (about 11 years old. After they get married and have children), until they are old .(Westerners Record history photos).. Korean historical dramas are 95% fake. A large number of Chinese culture and Chinese historical elements are plagiarized directly. ------------------------ Real Korean traditional costumes (Hanbok) In ancient Korea name "朝鮮chaoxian" (one of ancient Chinese city), . "white-clothed ethnic 白衣民族" (Today Korean ancestors) wearing this fully chest exposed Korean dress (hanbok) is an "honor" for many Korean women - because she has a son! If the woman does not have a son or has daughters, she is not eligible to wear this kind of dew suit - only a korean woman who has a son is eligible to show her chest. So instead of feeling ashamed, these korean women in dew clothes have the feeling of "I'm proud of having a son! I want the world to know!" The meaning of. At that time, when there was no scientific contraceptive measures, the vast majority of Korean women would eventually give birth to a son, so the vast majority of Korean women could finally wear "proud" dew clothes. So this dew suit is the real traditional dress in Korea! Deliberately shirtless is a Korean tradition (hanbok), even in 2014. When the Pope visited South19 Korea, they also set up a "deliberately shirtless" statue to commemorate their tradition! ------------------------------ 1910. Japan has swallowed Korea. The Japanese believe that some of the low -level Korean traditional culture and primitive (women expose their nipples and transport things on their heads) are very primitive and backward. The Japanese banned Korean women from exposing the nipples (the traditional Korean costume. Hanbok). The Korean people strongly resisted. Koreans believe that this is a traditional culture of Korea. They insist on retention. In the Korean capital city. As long as the Japanese see those Korean women who show their nipples, they will give them penalties and slaps. After that, the Korean capital city gradually reduces Korean women's nipples. They cover the nipples with a piece of cloth. (But in the place where there are fewer Japanese soldiers. Korean women still maintain the traditional culture that exposes nipples). Until 1950, Westerners were still taking photos in Korea. A photo of Korean women showing nipples on the street (traditional Korean clothing). In 1970, this kind of Korean traditional culture disappeared completely. ** "white-clothed ethnic 白衣民族" in history = the ancestors of the Korean .
Maybe for English videos, but there is a wealth of knowledge provided by Asian youtubers online in other languages 😊 Technology can help with watching such videos if you want to learn more
Interesting talk about the long history of hanbok! I personally own a hanbok set myself, although I explicitly looked for a chima that was tied around the underbust because I have huge tracts of land and this style of chima constrained my bust in comparison. The cartoon profile picture I have right now is based on a picture where I wore a dangui, but in those pictures my chest almost burst out and it was super inconvenient. Thus it surprised me that the strap style was considered the more liberating one. I would love to see more large chested girls share their experience!
I think my favorite thing about this video is how the presentation managed to hint at the depth of information to learn while presenting a relatively limited amount up front (necessary to keep it a brief video introduction). I'm definitely adding her book to my wish list! Thank you for doing this series, it is so rewarding and enriching!
Dae Jang Geum was my first Korean drama when I was little and I've always wondered how legitimate the costumes were... Now I know haha It's still a wonderful series and an absolute classic!
This is fantastic! I’ve always been drawn to Korean historical dramas (especially the older ones) and portraits portraying the different styles that would have been prevalent in the Joseon Dynasty. It’s great to see such quality information on Korean fashion in English. Amazing as always V and thank you to Dr. Kim💕
Korea made the history of the ancient Chinese in Chaoxian 朝鮮 (Today Korea territory) into a historical TV series.specially used to create fake history (and culture) and brainwashing humans. South Korean historical dramas copy Chinese historical dramas by wearing clothes and headdresses that never appeared in Korea history. Many years ago, your Korean drama crew started to go to China to buy props that the Chinese crew did not want and shoot TV series in Chinese city Hengdian. Now there are even cultural relics of China's Han Dynasty in the Korean TV series. Koreans even copied the whole Hengdian, but Hengdian is all Chinese style architecture . Nnot only copy Chinese architecture, but also copy Chinese interior decoration. Chinese elements always appear in Korean TV dramas, such as ancient paintings, food, clothing, especially traditional clothes. Korean people often pretend to be the clothes and hairstyles of ancient Chinese people. Koreans have gone crazy, incorporate a lot of Chinese elements into TV dramas and claim that they are Korean. Koreans always give them barren history breast enhancement, just as Koreans are good at plastic surgery.
I REALLY appreciate you presenting us this type of content and hope you continue to bring on more guests with a different perspective and base of knowledge from your own...but as someone who knows absolutely nothing about historical Korean dress I wish we had gotten a bit of an overview in the beginning of the foundations of dress from underwear up so to speak and a brief explanation of the importance of clothing and customs within their culture. Some basic context I guess? I found this a bit hard to follow, like a dry straightforward presentation of pieces from a museum and not so much an engaging moving conversation (but that could just be my AHDH lol)
The cheollik being originated from the mongol terlig shows the utilitarian design. You had your legspace relatively roomy and the waist supported all for horsebackriding.
This was a wonderful presentation. Thank you so much, both of you! The fabrics are beautiful. It saddens me a little that "historical" show and movie designers feel as if the past true-to-life clothing was not good enough to show to modern audiences, across so many places and time periods. What a shame. Silk, printed with cinnabar? Exquisite! Pleated tucks? Ramie? I honestly think they are beautiful, each in their own way. I think history is important, and it's also important to represent it honestly, to the best of our abilities. Both of you succeed in that endeavor, admirably. Hugs
@@ragnkja Of course something to represent the beautiful colors without the toxicity would be preferred! It's only for on camera use, so approximating the deep brick color with something safe would do just fine!
i love dr. kim minjee's lectures! i learn so much everytime. korean garment history has become my own passion hobby. glad to see it reaching mainstream historical hobbyists more.
Amazing! Exactly the video I've wanted for so long. I love Korean historical drama, but I always wondered about the historicity of the costumes. Thank you, Dr Kim and Vasi! 🙏
Thank you for highlighting the history of clothing from places outside of Europe. I have so much curiosity and so little access to information on these topics.❤️🎄
These extant garments are so beautiful! Putting gold leaf on thin fabric is something I'd not heard of before, and it's amazing to hear people did that on clothing.
The garment with Buddhist symbols is likely an "afterlife dress" which later and up until today "afterlife blanket"/ "rebirth quilt "with printed mantras is used to cover the deceased or on the casket in Buddhist burial rituals. That is starting from Yuan, Ming and later Qing dynasty when Tibetan Buddhism introduced the use of mantra wheel embroidered on quilt. Later printing is used as the time it took to embroid a quilt full of Buddhist symbols meant it is originally exclusive to the Emperor and often bestowed as privileged gift towards martyrs or loyal subjects. This is not your ordinary day fashion as a living person wearing one might step on those symbols or stain the clothes that is considered desecration of holy objects that can carry "negative karma" consequences. It's like the golden hat worn by Ming dynasty emperor is actually a burial piece but often in historical drama the props of a golden hat is worn by a living emperor. The golden burial hat. ua-cam.com/users/shorts_a98K8L7VPo?si=IPpDOKPmp3v-5Lnh
This was very interesting even though up until now I had never thought about Korean historical fashion lol! Thank you Vasi for this excellent interview
I really enjoy this series! Its definitely very interesting to learn about korean fashion pre-hanbok, and to have context added to the historical kdramas I watch. Im 100% here for a korean "how historically accurate is this drama" channel.. so if anyone knows of one, let me know! 💜
Wow! That was a wonderful video. I think I'd like to find more information on what was similar or different from the fasions of other countries at the time. What they borrowed from China and what was their own and what not. I don't have a clue how to resurch that tho.
i love this series!!! its going to be so fun to watch the list of countries/cultures grow. im excited for the possibility of greek fashion in a future video if thats something you decide to do
As I'm korean, Thank you for your interest of korean traditional clothes. 🤩 I have been interested of western traditional fashion.and hair style. So I'm always watching some related videos and fanally find out your channel for utube allgorism. 🥰
This was super informative and so so comprehensive, I went from knowing almost nothing about Korean clothing to having a framework about it. Great work!
I think the reason producers choose later period styles of clothing for period dramas is that they are the most easily recognizable as Korean clothing. Unlike in the West, where there is a real push to be historically accurate, in Korea there is still an intense patriotism (thanks to a complicated mix of Confucianism and Colonial-related trauma). Enough so that people don't want to see outside influence, even if it means sacrificing accuracy.
I'm so excited to watch this!! I love asian culture. I'm currently really into Chinese and Japanese period dramas atm but if anyone has any Korean period dramas please let me know.
I wonder if the one shoulder strap rule in traditional dress has any relation to commoners showing their legs and the aristocracy covering them? Less materials could make the price cheap, though I have no idea how significant it would be, or if it's just due to a sumptuary law.
Very interesting !!! BUT ~ 00:35 h you declare, that nature is asymmetrical anyways - that is not true. Most plants and animals are indeed symmetrical.
In the ancient Korea (Chaoxian朝鮮 -Real historical name, Chinese territory and the Chinese regio before 1910). In 918-1910. It was two different ethnic groups. 1.Chinese (Han Ethnic)(Wear color and pattern clothes) - Ruler and nobleman 2. Korean (White Clothes Ethnic)( Wear white clothes without pattern) - Civilians and slaves 1. Ruler and nobleman (Goguryeo高句麗 , Baekje百濟, Silla新羅 , Goryeo高麗, Joseon朝鮮=Chaoxian朝鮮 ..): Chinese local officials and nobles (royal members, monks, scholars, soldiers, architects, technicians, and their families ...). They are Chinese (Han) and their descendants born in the local area. They have always wore China in China costumes. They speak Chinese language (official and Han dialect) and Chinese characters. They are Chinese officials and represent the Chinese emperor's governance of the ancient Korean Peninsula (朝鮮). Local Chinese officials (Chaoxian king朝鮮王) and Chinese nobles in ancient Korea (Chaoxian 朝鮮-Chinese territory). They all Chinese clothes (hanfu), headdress (hat and crown), silk cloth (including embroidery), soldiers (such as: defensive clothing, horses). Weapons (including cannons), Chinese literature books (including Chinese history, Taoism Buddhism), Chinese special architectural materials (including palaces and design paintings). Food materials (Chinese food and Chinese royal food), wooden wheels used, large military ships, etc. are made from other cities in China). Among them, the Chinese royal's (Chaoxian king /officials and nobles) Hanfu comes from Chinese han clothes, opera clothing, and hat crown headwear. Therefore, the fabric on the clothes is high -level. There are a large number of Chinese official dragon patterns and various traditional Chinese patterns (including Chinese characters) on the clothes. 2. Civilians and slaves (Goryeo高麗, Joseon=Chaoxian朝鮮 ..only appeared in history after the 13th century): Civilians and slaves are indigenous Koreans (White Clothes Ethnic白衣民族). They speak Korean language. Long -term banned learning and use of Chinese characters 漢字(except a few descendants of mixed with Chinese people). Korean people cannot use any pattern of Chinese imperial power. 龍dragon and 鳯phoenix. In ancient times, this was a beheading and destroyer. * Chinese patterns and Dragon's totem represents the symbol of the ancient Chinese and Chinese power. Korean people cannot use any pattern of Chinese imperial power. 龍dragon and 鳯phoenix. Only the Chinese royal family and senior officers can use it. If the "White clothes Ethnic 白衣民族" (today's ancestors of Koreans) use the pattern of dragon and use Chinese characters. They will destroy the tribe and beheaded. Korean characters韓字 are text used by slaves. Ancient Korean can only use Korean characters (after the 15th century. Chinese officials - Chaoxian king and Chinese scholars who settled on the Chaoxian朝鮮 . Chinese officials use Chinese characters and Korean language to create "Korean characters韓字 ".) for slaves. These low Korean soldiers are used to protect the Chaoxian Peninsula 朝鮮半島(Chinese territory) to prevent Japanese pirates from invasion. In ancient Korea (Chaoxian朝鮮 ) does not have any technologies and processes such as metal , Bend the wood and dye embroidery patterns. Most Korean men became low -level soldiers in the Chinese army (under the command of Chinese officers). There is no armor. Korean only wear pure white clothes and korean women's clothing is exposed nipples (Hanbok - Features of traditional Korean clothes). All Korean women use their heads to move anything (similar to other primitive tribal culture). Korean houses are cottage built with grass (only Chinese can live in Chinese palaces and temples). Korean people earn food in the market concentrated on exchanging items. They do not have any coins and any metal things. South Korea's national culture and tools for use are very primitive. * Chinese patterns and dragon totems represent the ancient Chinese and symbols of Chinese power. Only the Chinese royal family and high-ranking military officers can use them. If the "White clothes Ethnic 白衣民族" (today's ancestors of Koreans) use dragon patterns and use Chinese characters ((In addition to the mulattoes and those working in the Chinese palace)), they will be exterminated. and beheaded. Writing history is the tradition and habit of the ancient Chinese. The history of the ancient Korean Peninsula was written by classical Chinese. This was read for the Chinese and must be approved for the Chinese emperor. This is a record and governance story of Chinese officials and nobles on the ancient Korean Peninsula.
The King of Korea( Chaoxian 朝鮮) and the nobles of all ages is Chinese. The ancient Chaoxian kings (korean kings) 朝鮮王 and noble members all said that Chinese official language中國官語 and Han dialects漢族方言. If they speak Korean, they are completely unable to use Chinese characters漢字 and classical Chinese文言文. They can communicate and communicate with the Chinese fluently. Because they are Chinese . They have always used Chinese names and surnames. They are wearing Chinese clothes (HANFU 漢服) and using Chinese coins (it cannot be used on the Chaoxian Peninsula 朝鮮半島"Korean Peninsula"). All clothes and headdress (including daily necessities and weapons) are from other cities in China. They live in Chinese palaces (Gyeongbok palace景福宮) and nearby Chinese buildings. They are the same as the Chinese in other cities. From the beginning of birth, they learn Chinese language漢語(with Han dialect漢方言) and Chinese characters漢字. They hate Korean language and use Korean characters(Even the Korean characters were invented by them). These are clearly recorded in history. The Chaoxian king official (Korea kings official )of is the same as other Chinese officials. It is necessary to regularly participate in the "Chinese officials exam". The historical records of each Chinese city (including Chaoxian history - Korean history) also need to be reviewed for the Chinese emperor. These history are written to the Chinese people and future generations. The ancient Chaoxian king (Korean king- Chinese people) and noble members were written to the Chinese emperor. In the letter, they have always called themselves "Chinese中國人& Han family 漢家族".They have always called the Korean Peninsula as "China中國". And they are Chinese in themselves. The area where Chinese people ( king and noble members) lived was called 漢城 (Chinese city). The name was changed to "Seoul 首爾" in 2004. ++++++++++++++++ Shin Yun-bok 申潤福 and Dae Jang-geum大長今 are both 100% ancient Chinese. In history, They returned to China other city after completing their work in China-Chaoxian 中國朝鮮 . There is no way they are Korean and speak the Korean language. Gyeongbok palace (景福宮) is a Chinese building (residence of Chinese official families). It was built on the peninsula by ancient Chinese and Chinese architects. It was part of the territory and power of ancient China (before 1900). Belongs to China local government buildings. Dragon is a symbol of the power of Chinese emperor. Dragon only uses only men in the Chinese royal family. Ancient Koreans stole the use of dragons to be beheaded.
Today Korean Ethnic ancestors are the southernmost indigenous people in the ancient korean peninsula (Chaoxian Peninsula朝鮮半島 , Real historical name - Chinese territory before 1910)It is known as "white clothes Ethnic白衣民族" in history. They speak Korean language. There is no characters. There is no coin (exchange items). In history, Korean women clothes (Hanbok) will show nipples after marriage. Women use their heads to transport things. The ancient Koreans were 95% wearing white (without any patterns and dyes). This is also the identity of the Korean ethnic's ancestors as "white clothes Ethnic白衣民族" to be used by non -Korean ethnic (ancient Chinese do not wear white clothes, except funeral). This is very certain. Goguryeo 高句麗 is one of the Chinese regimes of the northern region established by the Chinese . Baekje 百濟, Silla 新羅. (formerly known as: China Tang Silla 唐新羅. ).... It is also a regional regime established by the Chinese.Their kings and nobles are proficient in Chinese language. They use Chinese characters. Wong's Goryeo王氏高麗, li' Joseon李氏朝鮮 ... ..... Their royal nobles are not the same ethnic group with Pingmin slave. The royal nobles are Chinese and descendants (born on the peninsula). Civilian slaves are indigenous Koreans. Their king and nobles can communicate with the Chinese. Long -term exchanges with the Chinese. Using Chinese language and text represents noble identity. (They use the name of the Chinese . Chinese governance method. They wearing Chinese clothes. Chinese emperor is a parent.). They used various methods to limit class mobility to avoid others (koreans) from becoming "nobles". Their people and slaves (white clothes Ethnic白衣民族) are prohibited and learned Chinese language and Chinese characters. These people use Korean language. There is no characters (until the 15th century). Almost all are illiterate. The creator of "Korean characters" (諺文real history name). It is ancient Chinese people (royal nobles and scholars in peninsula) who can speak fluent Chinese language and deep understanding of Chinese characters漢字 and classic Chinese文言文 . Use the method of decomposing Chinese characters. Mixed Koreans' language. Creation makes indigenous Koreans who speak Korean. The symbol "Korean characters"(諺文real history name) that Korean can be used. For more than 2000 years, the Korean Peninsula has been Chinese territorial and local regimes. Official languages and texts are also Chinese languages and Chinese characters漢字(classic Chinese文言文) . 1910. Japanese occupation of the Korea Peninsula (Chaoxian Peninsula朝鮮半島 , Real historical name - Chinese territory before 1910). The Japanese abolished Chinese characters. Korean language and characters (invention of the 15th century) of indigenous language began to popularize on the Korea Peninsula ( Chaoxian Peninsula朝鮮半島 ) . 1950. With the help of the USA. Become an independent country (North and South Korea), dominated by the Korean ethnic (white clothes Ethnic白衣民族). The official language is Korean language and Korean characters, which is only 70 years of history. Anceint japan (before 13th century )= 東瀛 & 扶桑 & 倭 . (the name set by the Chinese emperor. It is also the name of the historical record) Today japan = 日本 Anceint korea= 朝鮮 (and 高包麗. 百濟. 新羅. 王氏高麗. 李氏朝鮮) . (the name set by the Chinese emperor.

you’re not losing your history to china, you’re just taking your grudge against china and trying to make your history unique to itself (even if it takes saying korea copied mongolia as long as its not china) you are actually ridiculous dude. Chinese fashions came first, korea took influence and made it unique to korea, plain and simple. And saying the ming dynasty inspired officials clothing of korea is mongolian after china’s yuan dynasty where china obviously took inspiration from mongolian fashions. And even then the official costume came from the song dynasty.
@@mimimoneymachine Koreans love to deny history and say they were the originals. Claiming folding fans, hanfu, etc. Next they'll say hip hop originated in Korea
지나가던 한국인입니다만 고려양이 문헌에 기록된 사실이라고 해도 글 작성자의 정확한 이해가 없는 상태에서의 발언은 시비거리밖에 안 되는 겁니다. 한복은 수 세기에 따라 발전했고 한국의 복식임에 틀림없습니다. 남이 떡이 커 보여 시샘하는데에 지나치게 확대 해석한다거나 일희일비할 필요는 없다고 봅니다.
I remember a few years ago, there was this argument started by the south Koreans that. Chinese female Hanfu was copy of the Korean Hanbok. Chinese was called copycats of Korean hanbok fashion. Now this video proved them all wrong, and that the Hanbok was "INSPIRED" i say inspired and not Copy, cuz im nice. You can even hear it in the name HANbok and HANfu. HAN"Chiense" if it was korean, why not name it KORBok or koreaBok ? lol.
okay so this is actually the second time i write this comment from scratch cuz most tragically it seems yesterday i Did Not Hit Post ಥ_ಥ which is a shame! it was a pretty good comment methinks, wonderfully long, but alas! lets give it another go! i rlly loved this video! given the the constraints of footage and huge timespan it was a wonderful intro to the topic! the timeline and dates presented were fantastically comprehensive. i personally already have some background knowledge in historical korean dress, meaning the new info presented (eg. yuan dynasty influence and 20th cent hybridization) previously unknown was especially thrilling!! ((i find it so endearing the fact norigae 'something to play with' were essentially named for being stim toys! hdjekwrifhwj)) some aspects were not explored in depth, but that amount of detail would be off topic not being textiles, and impossible to fit in the time stamp! (eg. hairdressing denoting societal status, 'sangtu' adult men's topknot, 'binyeo' married women's hairpin, 'daenggi meori' children's ribbon bound plait hairstyle, 'chorip' aristocracy's 'yanbang' adult unmarried men's hat -> gat is for married men, 'gache' wigs evolving from fashion before fossilising into court cerimonial female dress and courtesans 'giseang' daily wear, vertical stripes on sleeves being reserved for children and cerimonial robes, commoners wearing reed woven shoes yanbang wearing leather shoes etc.) i 1000% recommend "TMI About Old Korea" hosted on webtoon and blog "the talking cupboard" for more info on korea! they're super extensive online english sources on everything from wedding practices, architecture, cuisine, court rankings/workings, literature beyond hanbok. MUST READS all the way for anyone interested! i will also check out dr. kim's book!
i love your "500 years of…" series so much 🤍 you inspired me to learn more about history topics that are often overlooked or are not as studied as others. currently i’m working on an essay focused around mexican fashion from the 16th century to the 20th century :)
This is so wonderful to hear! If you happen to know of any Mexican fashion historians who might want to be a part of an upcoming 500 Years of Mexican Fashion episode, please let me know! I've been trying to find a historian for this topic to little avail. All the best with the essay 😀

(But in the place where there are fewer Japanese soldiers. Korean women still maintain the traditional culture that exposes nipples).
Until 1950, Westerners were still taking photos in Korea. A photo of Korean women showing nipples on the street (traditional Korean clothing). In 1970, this kind of Korean traditional culture disappeared completely.

Or anything other than Anglo-French fashion, really.
Hope you enjoyed it!!

Interesting talk about the long history of hanbok! I personally own a hanbok set myself, although I explicitly looked for a chima that was tied around the underbust because I have huge tracts of land and this style of chima constrained my bust in comparison.

That’s wonderful! I think a series doesn’t always have to have accurate costumes to be enjoyable, and I think this example just goes to show 😊
Dae Jang Geum is iconic
감사합니다
it’s such a rare opportunity to learn about korean fashion history ❤
It is, I’m so grateful to Dr. Kim. Thanks for watching!
This is fantastic! I’ve always been drawn to Korean historical dramas (especially the older ones) and portraits portraying the different styles that would have been prevalent in the Joseon Dynasty. It’s great to see such quality information on Korean fashion in English. Amazing as always V and thank you to Dr. Kim💕
Thanks so much Mycah! Really glad you enjoyed the interview 😊
Korea made the history of the ancient Chinese in Chaoxian 朝鮮 (Today Korea territory) into a historical TV series.specially used to create fake history (and culture) and brainwashing humans.
South Korean historical dramas copy Chinese historical dramas by wearing clothes and headdresses that never appeared in Korea history. Many years ago, your Korean drama crew started to go to China to buy props that the Chinese crew did not want and shoot TV series in Chinese city Hengdian. Now there are even cultural relics of China's Han Dynasty in the Korean TV series. Koreans even copied the whole Hengdian, but Hengdian is all Chinese style architecture . Nnot only copy Chinese architecture, but also copy Chinese interior decoration.
Chinese elements always appear in Korean TV dramas, such as ancient paintings, food, clothing, especially traditional clothes. Korean people often pretend to be the clothes and hairstyles of ancient Chinese people. Koreans have gone crazy, incorporate a lot of Chinese elements into TV dramas and claim that they are Korean. Koreans always give them barren history breast enhancement, just as Koreans are good at plastic surgery.
I REALLY appreciate you presenting us this type of content and hope you continue to bring on more guests with a different perspective and base of knowledge from your own...but as someone who knows absolutely nothing about historical Korean dress I wish we had gotten a bit of an overview in the beginning of the foundations of dress from underwear up so to speak and a brief explanation of the importance of clothing and customs within their culture. Some basic context I guess? I found this a bit hard to follow, like a dry straightforward presentation of pieces from a museum and not so much an engaging moving conversation (but that could just be my AHDH lol)
The cheollik being originated from the mongol terlig shows the utilitarian design. You had your legspace relatively roomy and the waist supported all for horsebackriding.
This was a wonderful presentation. Thank you so much, both of you! The fabrics are beautiful. It saddens me a little that "historical" show and movie designers feel as if the past true-to-life clothing was not good enough to show to modern audiences, across so many places and time periods. What a shame. Silk, printed with cinnabar? Exquisite! Pleated tucks? Ramie? I honestly think they are beautiful, each in their own way. I think history is important, and it's also important to represent it honestly, to the best of our abilities. Both of you succeed in that endeavor, admirably. Hugs
Modern reproductions hopefully use something other than cinnabar, since mercury sulfide is rather toxic.
@@ragnkja Of course something to represent the beautiful colors without the toxicity would be preferred! It's only for on camera use, so approximating the deep brick color with something safe would do just fine!
Aaahh!! I just finished reading Dress History of Korea which she edited, so very excited to watch this! 😁
Perfect timing! Hope you enjoyed the episode 😊
i love dr. kim minjee's lectures! i learn so much everytime. korean garment history has become my own passion hobby. glad to see it reaching mainstream historical hobbyists more.
Amazing! Exactly the video I've wanted for so long. I love Korean historical drama, but I always wondered about the historicity of the costumes. Thank you, Dr Kim and Vasi! 🙏
Glad you enjoyed the video! Thanks for watching ☺️
plsss do the ottoman empire next I LOVE this series👍
Please thank the lady for sharing her history with us, it was very interesting and the clothes were beautiful. ❤
“Sumptuary Laws” is the phrase that refers to clothing restrictions by color, material and design relative to ones class, rank, caste… just a FYI.
Thank you for highlighting the history of clothing from places outside of Europe. I have so much curiosity and so little access to information on these topics.❤️🎄
These extant garments are so beautiful! Putting gold leaf on thin fabric is something I'd not heard of before, and it's amazing to hear people did that on clothing.
The garment with Buddhist symbols is likely an "afterlife dress" which later and up until today "afterlife blanket"/ "rebirth quilt "with printed mantras is used to cover the deceased or on the casket in Buddhist burial rituals.
That is starting from Yuan, Ming and later Qing dynasty when Tibetan Buddhism introduced the use of mantra wheel embroidered on quilt.
Later printing is used as the time it took to embroid a quilt full of Buddhist symbols meant it is originally exclusive to the Emperor and often bestowed as privileged gift towards martyrs or loyal subjects.
This is not your ordinary day fashion as a living person wearing one might step on those symbols or stain the clothes that is considered desecration of holy objects that can carry "negative karma" consequences.
It's like the golden hat worn by Ming dynasty emperor is actually a burial piece but often in historical drama the props of a golden hat is worn by a living emperor.
The golden burial hat.

Thank you so much 🙏🙏🙏🙏!!!
K fashion is so inspiring… beautiful.
I would love to learn about 500 years of Byzantine & Balkan clothing
Thank you for sharing this history with us. 🎉
This was very interesting even though up until now I had never thought about Korean historical fashion lol! Thank you Vasi for this excellent interview
I really enjoy this series!
Its definitely very interesting to learn about korean fashion pre-hanbok, and to have context added to the historical kdramas I watch.
Im 100% here for a korean "how historically accurate is this drama" channel.. so if anyone knows of one, let me know! 💜
Excellent, really enjoyed this and learned a lot
Wow! That was a wonderful video. I think I'd like to find more information on what was similar or different from the fasions of other countries at the time. What they borrowed from China and what was their own and what not. I don't have a clue how to resurch that tho.
조선초기 궁중한복의 유래와 조선후기의 그 변화과정까지 잘봤습니다 ❤
I’d love to see more of other cultures/ traditional costume 😍😍😍
Many more coming! There’s also a playlist in the pinned comment with the 4 other episodes in this series 😊
i love this series!!! its going to be so fun to watch the list of countries/cultures grow. im excited for the possibility of greek fashion in a future video if thats something you decide to do
love hearing about non- european fashion! ❤
Thank you so much for this video. I am part Korean and am excited to find more resources in English. ❤
This was wonderful, I learned so much. Thank you Dr Kim!
As I'm korean, Thank you for your interest of korean traditional clothes. 🤩 I have been interested of western traditional fashion.and hair style. So I'm always watching some related videos and fanally find out your channel for utube allgorism. 🥰
This was so in depth and fascinating!
This was super informative and so so comprehensive, I went from knowing almost nothing about Korean clothing to having a framework about it. Great work!
Wow, would love to see about manchu clothing. 😊 lovely video
This was so fascinating! Thank you Dr. Kim for your expertise! ❤
Fascinating! Beautiful fashions throughout the ages! Learned so much, thank you!
I think the reason producers choose later period styles of clothing for period dramas is that they are the most easily recognizable as Korean clothing. Unlike in the West, where there is a real push to be historically accurate, in Korea there is still an intense patriotism (thanks to a complicated mix of Confucianism and Colonial-related trauma). Enough so that people don't want to see outside influence, even if it means sacrificing accuracy.
I'm so excited to watch this!! I love asian culture. I'm currently really into Chinese and Japanese period dramas atm but if anyone has any Korean period dramas please let me know.
So interesting. Thank you for this video.
Soooo excited to watch this!!
Very interesting info and such beautiful textiles!
FASCINATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Very nice !
Could u make a video about Chinese traditional clothes ❤
Having family still on Vietnam would love to see thqt
Cool 😀
Can you also do a film abt Chinese hanfu? I love Ming dynasty fashion so much ❤ So beautiful ❤
There will be a “500 Years of Chinese Fashion” video in the future 😊
I wonder if the one shoulder strap rule in traditional dress has any relation to commoners showing their legs and the aristocracy covering them? Less materials could make the price cheap, though I have no idea how significant it would be, or if it's just due to a sumptuary law.
Very interesting !!!
BUT ~ 00:35 h you declare, that nature is asymmetrical anyways - that is not true.
Most plants and animals are indeed symmetrical.
Do Iran next please
I’ve been trying to for a while but it’s been very hard to find a fashion historian to interview
The only problem with the great new invention of photography is that it took away the beauty of color for awhile
In the ancient Korea (Chaoxian朝鮮 -Real historical name, Chinese territory and the Chinese regio before 1910). In 918-1910. It was two different ethnic groups.
1.Chinese (Han Ethnic)(Wear color and pattern clothes) - Ruler and nobleman
2. Korean (White Clothes Ethnic)( Wear white clothes without pattern) - Civilians and slaves
1. Ruler and nobleman (Goguryeo高句麗 , Baekje百濟, Silla新羅 , Goryeo高麗, Joseon朝鮮=Chaoxian朝鮮 ..):
Chinese local officials and nobles (royal members, monks, scholars, soldiers, architects, technicians, and their families ...). They are Chinese (Han) and their descendants born in the local area. They have always wore China in China costumes. They speak Chinese language (official and Han dialect) and Chinese characters. They are Chinese officials and represent the Chinese emperor's governance of the ancient Korean Peninsula (朝鮮).
Local Chinese officials (Chaoxian king朝鮮王) and Chinese nobles in ancient Korea (Chaoxian 朝鮮-Chinese territory). They all Chinese clothes (hanfu), headdress (hat and crown), silk cloth (including embroidery), soldiers (such as: defensive clothing, horses). Weapons (including cannons), Chinese literature books (including Chinese history, Taoism Buddhism), Chinese special architectural materials (including palaces and design paintings). Food materials (Chinese food and Chinese royal food), wooden wheels used, large military ships, etc. are made from other cities in China).
Among them, the Chinese royal's (Chaoxian king /officials and nobles) Hanfu comes from Chinese han clothes, opera clothing, and hat crown headwear. Therefore, the fabric on the clothes is high -level. There are a large number of Chinese official dragon patterns and various traditional Chinese patterns (including Chinese characters) on the clothes.
2. Civilians and slaves (Goryeo高麗, Joseon=Chaoxian朝鮮 ..only appeared in history after the 13th century):
Civilians and slaves are indigenous Koreans (White Clothes Ethnic白衣民族). They speak Korean language. Long -term banned learning and use of Chinese characters 漢字(except a few descendants of mixed with Chinese people).
Korean people cannot use any pattern of Chinese imperial power. 龍dragon and 鳯phoenix. In ancient times, this was a beheading and destroyer.
* Chinese patterns and Dragon's totem represents the symbol of the ancient Chinese and Chinese power. Korean people cannot use any pattern of Chinese imperial power. 龍dragon and 鳯phoenix. Only the Chinese royal family and senior officers can use it. If the "White clothes Ethnic 白衣民族" (today's ancestors of Koreans) use the pattern of dragon and use Chinese characters. They will destroy the tribe and beheaded.
Korean characters韓字 are text used by slaves. Ancient Korean can only use Korean characters (after the 15th century. Chinese officials - Chaoxian king and Chinese scholars who settled on the Chaoxian朝鮮 . Chinese officials use Chinese characters and Korean language to create "Korean characters韓字 ".) for slaves.
These low Korean soldiers are used to protect the Chaoxian Peninsula 朝鮮半島(Chinese territory) to prevent Japanese pirates from invasion.
In ancient Korea (Chaoxian朝鮮 ) does not have any technologies and processes such as metal , Bend the wood and dye embroidery patterns.
Most Korean men became low -level soldiers in the Chinese army (under the command of Chinese officers). There is no armor. Korean only wear pure white clothes and korean women's clothing is exposed nipples (Hanbok - Features of traditional Korean clothes).
All Korean women use their heads to move anything (similar to other primitive tribal culture). Korean houses are cottage built with grass (only Chinese can live in Chinese palaces and temples).
Korean people earn food in the market concentrated on exchanging items. They do not have any coins and any metal things. South Korea's national culture and tools for use are very primitive.
* Chinese patterns and dragon totems represent the ancient Chinese and symbols of Chinese power. Only the Chinese royal family and high-ranking military officers can use them. If the "White clothes Ethnic 白衣民族" (today's ancestors of Koreans) use dragon patterns and use Chinese characters ((In addition to the mulattoes and those working in the Chinese palace)), they will be exterminated. and beheaded.
Writing history is the tradition and habit of the ancient Chinese.
The history of the ancient Korean Peninsula was written by classical Chinese. This was read for the Chinese and must be approved for the Chinese emperor. This is a record and governance story of Chinese officials and nobles on the ancient Korean Peninsula.
I can see the Chinese influence on Korean clothing. Not surprised though.
중국은 그당시 없었습니다 ㅎㅎ 당나라는 선비족으로 서역에서 온 옷을 의복으로 채택한거예요 서양의 양복같이
The King of Korea( Chaoxian 朝鮮) and the nobles of all ages is Chinese.
The ancient Chaoxian kings (korean kings) 朝鮮王 and noble members all said that Chinese official language中國官語 and Han dialects漢族方言. If they speak Korean, they are completely unable to use Chinese characters漢字 and classical Chinese文言文. They can communicate and communicate with the Chinese fluently. Because they are Chinese . They have always used Chinese names and surnames. They are wearing Chinese clothes (HANFU 漢服) and using Chinese coins (it cannot be used on the Chaoxian Peninsula 朝鮮半島"Korean Peninsula"). All clothes and headdress (including daily necessities and weapons) are from other cities in China. They live in Chinese palaces (Gyeongbok palace景福宮) and nearby Chinese buildings.
They are the same as the Chinese in other cities. From the beginning of birth, they learn Chinese language漢語(with Han dialect漢方言) and Chinese characters漢字. They hate Korean language and use Korean characters(Even the Korean characters were invented by them).
These are clearly recorded in history.
The Chaoxian king official (Korea kings official )of is the same as other Chinese officials. It is necessary to regularly participate in the "Chinese officials exam". The historical records of each Chinese city (including Chaoxian history - Korean history) also need to be reviewed for the Chinese emperor. These history are written to the Chinese people and future generations.
The ancient Chaoxian king (Korean king- Chinese people) and noble members were written to the Chinese emperor. In the letter, they have always called themselves "Chinese中國人& Han family 漢家族".They have always called the Korean Peninsula as "China中國". And they are Chinese in themselves. The area where Chinese people ( king and noble members) lived was called 漢城 (Chinese city). The name was changed to "Seoul 首爾" in 2004.
++++++++++++++++
Shin Yun-bok 申潤福 and Dae Jang-geum大長今 are both 100% ancient Chinese. In history, They returned to China other city after completing their work in China-Chaoxian 中國朝鮮 . There is no way they are Korean and speak the Korean language.
Gyeongbok palace (景福宮) is a Chinese building (residence of Chinese official families). It was built on the peninsula by ancient Chinese and Chinese architects. It was part of the territory and power of ancient China (before 1900). Belongs to China local government buildings.
Dragon is a symbol of the power of Chinese emperor. Dragon only uses only men in the Chinese royal family. Ancient Koreans stole the use of dragons to be beheaded.
Today Korean Ethnic ancestors are the southernmost indigenous people in the ancient korean peninsula (Chaoxian Peninsula朝鮮半島 , Real historical name - Chinese territory before 1910)It is known as "white clothes Ethnic白衣民族" in history. They speak Korean language. There is no characters. There is no coin (exchange items).
In history, Korean women clothes (Hanbok) will show nipples after marriage. Women use their heads to transport things. The ancient Koreans were 95% wearing white (without any patterns and dyes). This is also the identity of the Korean ethnic's ancestors as "white clothes Ethnic白衣民族" to be used by non -Korean ethnic (ancient Chinese do not wear white clothes, except funeral). This is very certain.
Goguryeo 高句麗 is one of the Chinese regimes of the northern region established by the Chinese . Baekje 百濟, Silla 新羅. (formerly known as: China Tang Silla 唐新羅. ).... It is also a regional regime established by the Chinese.Their kings and nobles are proficient in Chinese language. They use Chinese characters.
Wong's Goryeo王氏高麗, li' Joseon李氏朝鮮 ... .....
Their royal nobles are not the same ethnic group with Pingmin slave. The royal nobles are Chinese and descendants (born on the peninsula). Civilian slaves are indigenous Koreans.
Their king and nobles can communicate with the Chinese. Long -term exchanges with the Chinese. Using Chinese language and text represents noble identity. (They use the name of the Chinese . Chinese governance method. They wearing Chinese clothes. Chinese emperor is a parent.).
They used various methods to limit class mobility to avoid others (koreans) from becoming "nobles".
Their people and slaves (white clothes Ethnic白衣民族) are prohibited and learned Chinese language and Chinese characters. These people use Korean language. There is no characters (until the 15th century). Almost all are illiterate.
The creator of "Korean characters" (諺文real history name). It is ancient Chinese people (royal nobles and scholars in peninsula) who can speak fluent Chinese language and deep understanding of Chinese characters漢字 and classic Chinese文言文 .
Use the method of decomposing Chinese characters. Mixed Koreans' language. Creation makes indigenous Koreans who speak Korean. The symbol "Korean characters"(諺文real history name) that Korean can be used.
For more than 2000 years, the Korean Peninsula has been Chinese territorial and local regimes. Official languages and texts are also Chinese languages and Chinese characters漢字(classic Chinese文言文) .
1910. Japanese occupation of the Korea Peninsula (Chaoxian Peninsula朝鮮半島 , Real historical name - Chinese territory before 1910). The Japanese abolished Chinese characters. Korean language and characters (invention of the 15th century) of indigenous language began to popularize on the Korea Peninsula ( Chaoxian Peninsula朝鮮半島 ) .
1950. With the help of the USA. Become an independent country (North and South Korea), dominated by the Korean ethnic (white clothes Ethnic白衣民族). The official language is Korean language and Korean characters, which is only 70 years of history.

What culture do you have? Either a subsidiary of China or a colony of Japan😮
谈朝鲜历史中国是你们绕不过的一座高山，朝鲜文化只是中国的地方性文化，不太要太自卑哟
you’re not losing your history to china, you’re just taking your grudge against china and trying to make your history unique to itself (even if it takes saying korea copied mongolia as long as its not china) you are actually ridiculous dude. Chinese fashions came first, korea took influence and made it unique to korea, plain and simple. And saying the ming dynasty inspired officials clothing of korea is mongolian after china’s yuan dynasty where china obviously took inspiration from mongolian fashions. And even then the official costume came from the song dynasty.
@@mimimoneymachine Koreans love to deny history and say they were the originals. Claiming folding fans, hanfu, etc. Next they'll say hip hop originated in Korea
지나가던 한국인입니다만 고려양이 문헌에 기록된 사실이라고 해도 글 작성자의 정확한 이해가 없는 상태에서의 발언은 시비거리밖에 안 되는 겁니다. 한복은 수 세기에 따라 발전했고 한국의 복식임에 틀림없습니다. 남이 떡이 커 보여 시샘하는데에 지나치게 확대 해석한다거나 일희일비할 필요는 없다고 봅니다.
पुराना पहनावा जारी करो 👈🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I remember a few years ago, there was this argument started by the south Koreans that. Chinese female Hanfu was copy of the Korean Hanbok. Chinese was called copycats of Korean hanbok fashion. Now this video proved them all wrong, and that the Hanbok was "INSPIRED" i say inspired and not Copy, cuz im nice.
You can even hear it in the name HANbok and HANfu. HAN"Chiense" if it was korean, why not name it KORBok or koreaBok ? lol.
okay so this is actually the second time i write this comment from scratch cuz most tragically it seems yesterday i Did Not Hit Post ಥ_ಥ which is a shame! it was a pretty good comment methinks, wonderfully long, but alas! lets give it another go!
i rlly loved this video! given the the constraints of footage and huge timespan it was a wonderful intro to the topic! the timeline and dates presented were fantastically comprehensive.
i personally already have some background knowledge in historical korean dress, meaning the new info presented (eg. yuan dynasty influence and 20th cent hybridization) previously unknown was especially thrilling!! ((i find it so endearing the fact norigae 'something to play with' were essentially named for being stim toys! hdjekwrifhwj))
some aspects were not explored in depth, but that amount of detail would be off topic not being textiles, and impossible to fit in the time stamp! (eg. hairdressing denoting societal status, 'sangtu' adult men's topknot, 'binyeo' married women's hairpin, 'daenggi meori' children's ribbon bound plait hairstyle, 'chorip' aristocracy's 'yanbang' adult unmarried men's hat -> gat is for married men, 'gache' wigs evolving from fashion before fossilising into court cerimonial female dress and courtesans 'giseang' daily wear, vertical stripes on sleeves being reserved for children and cerimonial robes, commoners wearing reed woven shoes yanbang wearing leather shoes etc.)
i 1000% recommend "TMI About Old Korea" hosted on webtoon and blog "the talking cupboard" for more info on korea! they're super extensive online english sources on everything from wedding practices, architecture, cuisine, court rankings/workings, literature beyond hanbok. MUST READS all the way for anyone interested! i will also check out dr. kim's book!
i love your "500 years of…" series so much 🤍
you inspired me to learn more about history topics that are often overlooked or are not as studied as others. currently i’m working on an essay focused around mexican fashion from the 16th century to the 20th century :)
This is so wonderful to hear!
If you happen to know of any Mexican fashion historians who might want to be a part of an upcoming 500 Years of Mexican Fashion episode, please let me know! I've been trying to find a historian for this topic to little avail. All the best with the essay 😀
i love this series!!! its going to be so fun to watch the list of countries/cultures grow. im excited for the possibility of greek fashion in a future video if thats something you decide to do
