It was the ceremonial robe for a princess or the king's daughter by a concubine. It was allowed to be worn by common folks only on their weddings. Outside was red, while inside was blue. Embroidery of floral patterns and letters meaning longevity and happiness decorated the whole robe, which was added with ten pasted sheets of traditional Korean paper. Sleeve-ends were made colorful with blue, yellow and red. They wore crowns on their heads with dark violet hair ribbons.
