How many colors were there in Hanbok sleeves during the Korean period?

Five kinds.

Deeply influenced by China culture, South Korea absorbed China's Five Elements Theory. "Gold (white), wood (blue), water (black), fire (red) and earth (yellow)", the use of white, blue, black, red and yellow is handy. Hanbok sleeves are all these colors.

Some people say that Koreans like primary colors, so the expression of emotions is also very direct, and they will show all kinds of intense emotions. Surrounded by such bright colors, people's emotions will naturally be very intense.
