Korean School System + Renting School Uniforms | Glass with Billy
By now most of you probably know about my friend Jinyoung, since she’s appeared in several videos over the past 4 years.
I’ve known about Hanbok rentals since I first visited Korea, but I never knew you could also rent school uniforms in Korea – until last year when I decided to search.
We found a place in Hongdae that had rentals, and it was easy to get to and fun to try. It definitely isn’t something that most Koreans are aware of, and I can’t imagine any tourists going there.
The total cost was about 30,000 for both of ours, since we returned it the same day. They also offer packages to rent them for several days, but we just wanted to take some fun photos with them.
It was my first time ever wearing any sort of school uniform (we don’t really have them much in the US) and Jinyoung’s first time since she graduated high school. It was a lot of fun, and I’d do it again. Thanks for coming along Jinyoung!
I personally believe that school uniform code in Korean school are attractive and display the uniqueness than one of that American’s. But it also doesn’t conclude that US school uniforms are not good enough. It is my own belief. Besides that, maintaining the school uniform plays a major role in making your school wearable looks attractive.
