Old Hanbok



What are those? Can you guess? Those are Hanbok. Hanbok is Korean traditional dress. It’s very beautiful, my favorite kind of dress. In fact, I love to wear for special occasion. So far, I have worn hanbok at the school graduation and my friend’s engagement party. I plan to wear it to a wedding party. By wearing it, I feel really special. People start to stare. Hehehe…that’s why I feel special.
Now, I will explain a bit about hanbok. But I am not an expert so I took the information from the internet,
www.korea.net. the hanbok worn by women as everyday attire consists chiefly of the following: a dress ( jeogori ), a skirt ( chima ), and undergarments, such as an undershirt ( sokjeogori ), under pants ( gojaeng-i ), inner skirt ( sokchima ) and socks ( beoseon ). Men's hanbok are made up of jeogori, pants ( baji ), an overcoat ( durumagi ), vest, outer coat ( magoja ) and socks ( beoseon ). Western accessories such as shoes and handbag are also used.
The hanbok on the picture is a used one. I bought my hanbok at the traditional market which is called “CIMOL” at Gedebage Market, in Bandung. They sell those hanbok at a reasonable price if you know how to bargain. They may look old and dirty but once you wash them, they will look like a brand new ones. You need to be very careful in choosing and be good in doing the bargain for the price.
So, if you want to have a hanbok with a very cheap price, just go to CIMOL at Gedebage Market in Bandung. It’s quite famous site, so you won’t get lost. Go shopping till you drop!

프라이팬 놀이/Frying Pan Game/BTS

Playing Frying Pan Game/BTS We played a new game called Frying pan game (프라이팬 놀이) with our Korean guests in our Korean Class. It was fun. It’s like catching the mouse game. We learn the Korean numbers in the same time.  Say, if your friend mentions your name and the number, you have to mention your name according to the number he/she mentions previously.  For example, if your friend says "Dana dul (2)", so you have to say your name twice, "Dana...Dana" and so on and so on. If you make a mistake, well, you get the punishment. The type of the punishment depends on the agreement of the players. They are many types, trust me. Just choose one.  This game was played on one of the TV programs in Korea hosted by Kang Ho Dong (강 호 동), Hye Ryong said. 재미 있네요. 우리 애들이 놀이를 좋아해요.  But hey! BTS too played this game on one of their TV shows.  You can check out the video  here  So far, we have learned many Korean games. Mostly we got...

Yutnori

Yutnori Apa itu Yutnori ? Hmmm... pernah dengar yutnori (dibaca: yunnori)? kata ini bukan berasal dari bahasa Jawa tapi bahasa Korea. Yutnori adalah nama salah satu permainan tradisional Korea.  Permainan ini biasa dimainkan secara beregu ketika acara tahun baru Korea yang disebut juga 설날 (sollal) . Tahun baru biasanya menjadi ajang kumpul seluruh anggota keluarga. Selain makan Tteokguk , mereka biasanya memainkan Yutnori . Ini penampakan Yutnori , ada papan permainan dan dadunya. Yang unik, dadunya tidak bentuk kotak seperti kebanyakan dadu pada umumnya tapi berbentuk batangan. Hal lain yang membedakan dadu  yutnori  dari dadu pada umumnya adalah tidak ada bentuk titik-titik yang melambangkan angka. Yang ada itu tulisan  도  (Do),  개  (Gae),  걸  (Gul), dan  윷  (Mo) .   Eh, permainan ini pernah muncul disalah satu drama Korea yang dulu nge-hits banget dulu, Princess Hours. Kalau tidak salah di ep...

Historical Visit

Historical Visit Besides visiting Baduy. We also visited the old Banten. Banten used to be the most popular kingdom. It is known till England. Once their representative visited England and they were welcomed exaggeratedly. Banten is famous because it had an international port for trading. People from many countries visited it. Unfortunately there’s disagreement between the father—Sultan Ageng Tirtayasa—and the son—Sultan Haji who collaborated with the Dutch—which lead to the destruction of the palace and the vanquishing the offspring of the royal family. They now spread everywhere. The remnant was unknown back then till recently on the initiative of one person there the digging was conducted. During the old regime, Old Banten was stated to be dead site. So, not like Borobudur temple, the Old Banten remained infamous. The reconstruction was done very slowly. You can see in my pictures there. Instead now, the site is famous for the people who believe in magic tricks. They wh...
