The costume is known as a symbol of Vietnamese people for both women and men in all times. It is always associated with the good qualities (gentle, loyal, and hardworking) of Vietnamese women and the elegant and upright personality of Vietnamese men.

Meanwhile, the oldest evidence of early Hanbok can still be seen on the frescoes from the Kyuki-do period, about 300 BC. However, the most common image of the costume that everyone sees today was created and fixed during the reign of the Joseon Dynasty, over 1600 years ago.
