Hanbok Ettiquite


We went to an event which taught us how to wear a hanbok and learn about it's ettiquite. Jeol 절 is where you bow down on knees, and it's a way of acknowledging families and colleagues (teachers, professors, bosses, etc.)
Bowing to a professor. I hope we all get A's now!




Keun-jeol 큰절 is a deep bow” used during birthdays and banquets, takes place during the coming-of-age ceremonies, marriage, funerals and ancestral blessings.

This is mostly used for special holidays such as the new year, and family occasions.
