Why does my skirt bulge when I sit down in Hanbok?

Hanbok skirts are generally wider, with longer hems and natural drooping. When sitting in Hanbok, the longer part of the skirt will be folded inward to form a "pocket" shape, which will bulge upward.

In addition, if the hanbok skirt is made of thin flat shoes or no shoes on the feet, it is easy to bulge due to the influence of the body and the surrounding air. This phenomenon is more common when wearing traditional clothes.

In this case, people can gently flatten the bottom of the skirt to avoid pulling the skirt in the process of overexertion, so as to protect the neatness and beauty of Hanbok.
