K-Clothes Culture

K-Clothes Culture Beautiful Traditional Attire, Hanbok, Embodies the Spirit and Soul of the Korean People   2021.02.08       The world is taking a greater interest in “Hanbok,” the traditional attire of Korea, along with Korean content going viral across the world. Top K-pop groups BTS, Black Pink, and ITZY have uploaded music videos and choreography videos on YouTube wearing traditional and reinterpreted Hanbok, which focused their global fans’ attention on the attire. Also, the promotional video “Feel the Rhythm of Korea: SEOUL” made by the Korea Tourism Organization featured a mixture of Western and Eastern touches while fully reflecting the unique joy and traditions of Korea. While receiving comments that the attempt was so “hip,” the Dokebbi (goblin) costume people wore in the video naturally drew people’s attention. The reaction of foreigners who saw Korea’s traditional outfits through OTT programs is strong as well. For example, Korea’s traditional...

Seoul International Book Fair 2020 New Attempts and Experiments in the Era of COVID-19   2020.12.07   Official poster of the Seoul International Book Fair   Early this year, the Seoul International Book Fair organizers had been busy preparing for the next fair set to be held in June as usual. However, as the first big wave of the pandemic crisis hit Korea in February and persisted into March and April, most cultural art events that amass a big audience had to be canceled or postponed until the second half of the year. As such, the SIBF could not be held in June, as unforeseeable circumstances curtailed the freedom of movement. It was also difficult to predict how the situation would change, so taking the event's original form and plans was a high risk. The Seoul International Book Fair 2020 had no other choice but to take on a new challenge. Physical isolation, non-contact, and online platforms accelerated the changes and made the Book Fair think of a new para...
