1. [+2,790, -58] The corset is not the issue, this whole concept is just bizarre. I'd rather they all wear blue swimsuits or bikinis, what is this? This is an insult to the hanbok.
2. [+2,709, -45] What is this!!!!!!!!!!!!! Isn't this supposed to be a hanbok competition, what is that hanbok corset?
3. [+2,286, -42] Sigh... really... I don't even know what to say, they must be insane to think this is okay...
4. [+135, -1] Is this Miss Gisaeng?.. ㅠㅠㅠㅠ don't do this to the hanbok ㅠㅠㅠ
5. [+129, -3] I don't think even the gisaengs of the Josun dynasty dressed like this ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
6. [+111, -2] Ugh this is terrifying
7. [+107, -1] Whoever designed these hanboks, why would you do this to the traditional beauty that is already preserved... None of this looks pretty.
8. [+91, -1] This is... truly vulgar...
9. [+79, -2] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ How is this a hanbok ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ this is ridiculous. Our ancestors would be rolling in their graves if they saw this...
10. [+72, -1] I understand that fashion can change with time but this is just vulgar. Why would you do this to our country's traditional dress????

I can see why they are disappointed. Those are not hanboks. If the idea was to have hanboks but make them modern, that’s no problem but why did they not put any clothes on these girls? To show off their bodies, okay do that but not with something traditional a culture takes seriously like hanboks. They don’t even look pleasing.
