A hogeon is a type of ''gwanmo'' (관모), Korean traditional headgear for young boys aged one year to five years old. It was worn along with ''durumagi'' (overcoat) or ''jeonbok'' (a long vest). ''Hogeon'' was worn on holidays such as Seollal (Korean new year), Chuseok (Mid-term festival), or celebrations for their birthdays like doljanchi. The shape and material are almost similar to ''bokgeon'' except a tiger pattern embroidered on ''hogeon''. The outer is made of a black silk while the inner is dark blue silk. The tiger pattern was embroidered on the surface as reflecting parents' wish for their children to grow brave. The shapes of a tiger's eyebrow, eyes, whiskers, teeth and ears are decorated on the forehead of the hogeon. The ears was made with black and red fabrics. Strings attached to the end of the forehead part is able to tie the headgear to its back. Along with the tiger pattern, ''geumbak'' (gold leaf) of some of Hanja that had good and auspicious meaning are adorned with the ''hogeon'' to bliss the wearer. It was worn by young boys until they reached to the age of 5 or 6 years old. ==See also== *Bokgeon *Gulle *Nambawi *Jobawi *Ayam *Hanbok 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「hogeon」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
