On September 26, the Korean outlet Dispatch published a list of the 10 actresses who are beautiful in hanbok.

In the article, Dispatch compared the hanbok style of popular actresses like Kim Tae Hee, Ha Ji Won, and Park Min Young.

Traditional hanbok is commonly worn by K-Drama and K-pop stars, in their photos and messages that are greetings for the mid-autumn holiday, Chuseok. Women's hanbok traditionally consists of two pieces, a jacket or blouse known as jeogori and a wrap-skirt known as chima.

Women in hanbok are commonly featured in period K-Dramas. However, series centered around traditional families like "Unkind Women," will often feature a matriarch who continues to wear hanbok in modern-day society.

International audiences who do not normally watch period dramas were exposed to the historical context of Korean textiles and hanbok in the 2014 film, "The Royal Tailor."

With a star-studded cast including Park Shin Hye and Yoo Yeon Seok, "The Royal Tailor," captured the beautiful aura that is exuded from women in hanbok.

Park Min Young was stunning in hanbok for her portrayal of Hong Young Rae in the 2012 fantasy time slip drama, "Dr. Jin."

Kim Tae Hee was ethereal as Jang Ok Jung in SBS' "Jang Ok Jung, Living By Love."

Ha Ji Won portrayed the title role of a notorious Joseon period courtesan in "Hwang Jini."
