Hanbok are traditional Korean clothing worn due to their comfort, functionality, and ease of movement. Now, hanbok are worn for Korean traditions and celebrations such as Doljanchi, a baby’s first birthday.
Why are Baby Hanboks Worn?
Baby Hanboks are significant for a few Korean traditions but one very important one is called Doljanchi. Doljanchi celebrates a baby’s first birthday and throws a big feast and traditional foretelling ritual where a baby picks up a few toys that are associated with a meaning and allows parents to predict the baby’s future.
Baby Hanboks honor the Doljanchi tradition and culture of Korea. Koreans take pride in their cultural roots so they tend to find any avenue they can to preserve their traditions. This includes the clothing they wear.
In Doljanchi and other Korean traditions, Hanboks are worn by the entire family. In Doljabi, the baby’s parents wear baby hanboks to introduce the baby’s heritage and to preserve the tradition of Doljanchi.
Other traditions where babies wear Hanbok are a 100-day celebration and Chinese New Year.

Why can the need for Baby Hanboks be Urgent?
Baby Hanboks are worn for special traditions, celebrations, and holidays. Therefore, the date when they are worn is time-sensitive. A baby must have and wear their hanbok on a certain date. For example, Hanboks that are received from an e-commerce store after a baby’s Doljanchi becomes much less valuable and possibly useless for the family if they don’t celebrate other Korean holidays. (It’s important to note that many Koreans outside Korea practice Doljabi even if they don’t observe other Korean holidays. Doljanchi is seen as one of the most important Korean traditions.
