Two middle-aged Korean gentlemen walking down the street. They wear a traditional Korean costume, chogori and paji with turumagi that is tied with two long korum on the upper part of the coat. Their paji are tied with taenim at the lower ends of trousers. Both of them have chumoni, that contains money, under their waists. Their hat, called a hukrip or commonly a kat is made out of horsehair. Their shoes are komusin. The sunglasses reflect a modern attire among the upper-class Korean gentry.
