But did you know that there are various kinds and a trend among them?
From the hanbok pants that Jimin wore for the 2018 Melon Music Awards performance to linen Sochang Maxi Coat selected as Excellent Cultural Product by the culture ministry.

one of jimin's legendary stage. it's so cool to see behind story of this outfit!

[@angelsinstyle]

strongly agree💜💜💜

[@ggukphoria]

(whisper)" I'm actually an ARMY .'' It's all filmed by the camera.

[@ipurpleyou5227]

It's so cool how traditional clothes are made comfortable to wear daily. But she also can design smth so elegant and festive like Jimins hanbok. I always liked traditional wear and I often find myself wanting to integrate traditional elements of my country into my daily wear. But I don't know how and I haven't seen anything like that. Maybe I should try myself.

[@marshmallo1316]

💜💜💜 That hanbok was really beautiful 💜 Thank you for designing it for JIMIN 💜

So true but we can let her know how much we love her designs, right?

[@Kai-ok2jn]

Literally went to her site only to cry

[@swrangbiligoyari3369]

Her tiny excitement standing next to Jimin's Hanbok is so precious 🤗

[@pnar6412]

I saw this interview on Twitter and searched her name on KZbin because i thought that she is so sweet. She really is, i will search about her work more 💕 Thanks for making such a great hanbok for Jimin. It was the best stage ever.

[@winrii4009]

Jimin Love you so much Forevermore Always.

[@li-nettev.6703]

wow...i love Jimin's outfit..classy and modern at the same time..goid job Leslee 💜💜💜 hope that your dreams will come true. Hanbok is national prestige..treasure it. Gl on mass orders from the ARMY..and update us if its sold out! hahaha

[@Megan9689]

Hanbok look so cool and pretty! I hope the trend keeps going upward and people wear them more often as daily wear. I dont see why not! JK from BTS seems to be a big fan and has been seen wearing them more lately in his private life(airport fashion etc). With him being such a style icon and with other big popular celebs like Jimin also rocking it, I hope it helps spread the influence!

[@A.Spirited_Solivagant]

An inquisitiveness to know about Korean culture made me serendipitously come across BTS and I'm so grateful to each one of them for transforming my life. Seeing the beautiful nation of South Korea through their eyes and million others associated with them, makes me feel that I'm a part of it, despite being miles away.

[@BySelene]

Seeing that excitement in her eyes. She's even more inspired to make more designs. 💜 She brought traditional clothes into modern love it.💜💜💜

[@navyasanthosh6331]

I am so happy and glad for her, that she got to have her dream fulfilled and that she found a thing that she loves so much! I hope I get to wear a hanbok one day because they are so pretty! I also wish I would one day be able to find a thing, a hobby or a job that I truly love and excites me like a hanbok does for her!

[@azhhikari]

We can see how passionate she is about Hanbook. And her design looks elegant yet comfy, I wish I could buy one. I'm lowkey jealous of her too. Hahaha

[@serendipitybeautiful7301]

I absolutely love the Hanbok, the variety of colors and material makes them extremely attractive. When I'm able to visit Korean whenever this Coronavirus crisis is contained and travel is safe to resume. I have an extra suitcase at the ready for Hanbok.

[@yuiyue1776]

He looked so cool and flawless 💜🎵

[@applethree6128]

She so humble and cute really love Bts contributions in making other people dream become reality 💜

[@JikookDestiny]

I also like hanbok I have to buy one when I visit Korea

[@dabyduran9039]

Since I saw a hanbok for the first time in a drama I always though they are so pretty and I'm fascinated about this daily looks. They look beautiful and really comfy ^^

[@bijouruby1075]

This is really what we forget to look at so often, aside the songs we so much love, the clothes on them too make history! Waowwwwwww.... Well done to all involve in making BTS look so comfortable in their wears and give their very BEST! Sending allllllll my Sarang from Lagos, Nigeria! I really feel so proud of ya all!!!!!

[@tamlee6904]

Very talented and beautiful! Love the way her clothing looks! Hope she and her designs will always be a big hit. Bringing traditional things back into life and put it into a fashion for today is such a wonderful thing.

[@blancheknox4171]

I was just watching and admiring the hanbok again last night. It really suited Jimin. Beautiful just like he is. Borahae.

[@HOusEoFsiERRa]

To have Korea's #1 idol, Park Jimin, wear your hanbok in a culturally-relevant fan dance that TRENDED WORLDWIDE for hours, it must have been a huge thrill and honor. 🙏🏻

[@k.h.7732]

Those more casual hanboks look so comfortable and pretty! You are very talented! It is so nice to see such creative person honestly enjoying their work! It makes me hope, one day I will also reach this level with my work - that would allow me to be proud of what I do, and do it happily :) Thank you for speaking in such warm and respectful way about BTS!

[@JERDN]

Korea Now, great video!!! Thank you.

[@heyjude9895_]

This is so interesting tbh and the daily hanboks are so cute

I love Leesle's Hanbok designs! I bought the jacket that Taemin wears and posted a video of it and so many people loved it! Very comfortable too ^_^

[@loribritt7362]

I wish i could wear your dress 😍😍😍😍

[@9837765657]

Wow I love hanbok and she made it in a modern comfort wear. I m not a designer but I am thinking about designing my traditional dress into comfort wear.

[@pilardiaz8477]

Qué lindos trajes de ARMY

[@똥침의달인]

Really beautiful

[@susanodonovan4379]

I checked out her website. I wish I could afford her designs! They are beautiful!

[@sspiker]

Actually, a lot of these can replace "work attire" so I rather spend the money on something this nice and stylish than what most wear to interviews or jobs here in the states. $200 for a coat that will get years of years would be so worth it.

[@jessicapierce3027]

I want a coat from Daily Hanbok.

[@Paminjapan]

All of us ARMYs out here are so talented, creative and motivated in our own various ways and in places the GP probably would not expect. Hmmm and I just happened to get a new credit card in the mail yesterday and I know what my 1st purchase will be!

[@wildswan221]

cool. thanks for adding her site

[@matthewkia8120]

i swear to god. KOREA NOW IS AN ARMY! KOREA NOW IS WHY IM ALWAYS UPDATED

I want one of those how can I get one....

It's amazing I just want to buy hanbok

You can see the actual Hanbok Jimin wore. At an exhibition Dongdaemun Design Plaza along with other artists

[@athenakarmila2553]

💜💜💜💜💜💜💜

[@pparkeroni]

She talks about how the staffer asked for a sponsor but I do hope that bighit paid her. Gotta support local artists! (Tho since the original hanbok is with her i assume they did not)

[@Blue-lt1sq]

I was thinking like...I will collect all my pocket many and I'll buy all those things which are being sold in the name of bts.... But realized that I can't even afford an army bomb keychains bags...toys...😪😪😪

[@forparadise23]

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@NancyNinety9]

She is simply adorable. Question: can she make her products available to international fans? Would love to buy a couple of pieces but wouldn’t know where to start. 😞

[@youngdumb3857]

Damnn this is cool 🙃

[@ayy_yo6619]

I would love to wear one of those but I’m a plus size army. It won’t fit 😭

[@intreoo]

lmao imagine walking in to go to work and you see 5 girls sniffing jimin's hanbok

[@mei760]

ARMY ... we just crashed their website by over traffic

[@Ros-ky7xd]

Omggg

[@briellearia685]

And the hanbok so pretty 😍😭 I want to wear it too 😭

[@notbillcipher]

hanboks are so pretty but i wonder if it's a way of expressing yourself would it be okay for non koreans and other countries to wear a modernized hanbok?

[@BouguereauFan]

It’s okay to wear modernized Hanbok, even though you’re not Korean
