Baji (clothing)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Elderly wearing baji.

Baji (Korean: 바지[1]) is a kind of traditional Korean pant that is part of the hanbok.[2][3] A baji is baggy and loose, so it is tied around the waist.[2] In the past, Korean men wore baji as outer clothing, but for women, it gradually became part of the inner clothing.[2] Today, women wear chima for their outer clothes.[2]
