Two older women dressed in chima jeogori were standing next to a mud wall, talking to each other. Not far from Gyeongju is the Yangdong Folk Village, a village for Yanbang, a part of the traditional ruling class, where the old townscape has been preserved. The traditional chima jeogori looked very good in the old-fashioned townscape. So well suited that it was like looking at a movie set or something.
There were old-fashioned houses inside the walls. This village has been designated as a World Heritage Site for the preservation of traditional houses from the Yi Dynasty. In other words, the village is like a museum.
