This is Kijin's lovely "Hanbok". His foster mother gave it to us when we visited her and met Kijin in her condo the first time.
It is a lovely shade of pink, yellows, and greens. The pants ( not shown ) are a dark green colour.
It is the traditional Korean dress. It is often characterized by vibrant colours and simple lines without any pockets. The term "Hanbok" means "Korean clothing" and worn to any semi formal or formal traditional festivals or celebrations. The children usually get one every year and they wear them on their birthdays, celebrations and other cerimonies. Kijin's is about a size 1 and it should fit him just fine or a little big on him ! We will take many pictures this weekend with him wearing it on Saturday and Sunday in church for his dedication.
We also plan to keep in touch with Kijin's foster family in South Korea and send them pictures of Kijin in his "Hanbok" outfit and amoung many other updates as he grows !
