@haneul @Babykittyjade here's a tweet by Korean simmer about this outfit:
https://twitter.com/wwindystar/status/1480626043115675649

Auto translation:
The hanboks added this time are quite traditional, especially in terms of color, and are the clothes worn by the younger generation. Even the hair style was taken care of. Daenggi Meori was the hairstyle of virgins before marriage, and the Fujian was mainly worn by male students. As a Korean seamer, I am very happy that EA did a good job of verifying Korean content!

So indeed even the hairstyle is really for brides.

I think this is a misunderstanding. Before marriage means not on the wedding, but for single girls...

ETA: To be clear, so yes it's confirmed not wedding hanbok and EA didn't intend for it to be wedding hanbok and mess up either.

I see, I wouldn't mind a little explanation when they upload outfits like these. And not just "Our favorite Freezer Bunny ? is hopping into your game with new Create-A-Sim items"

We are free to use them however we want of course... but anyway, I think they look great.

@logion I agree that people are free to use the new clothes as they want, but I think it would look weird to use them for the bride and groom in a wedding, which is why I made my initial comment.

Oh nvm its already explained

was just to chime in
it isn't really wedding look as much as it is just formal party/family party look in modern sense
I guess you could use it as everyday but people might find it bit of overkill in modern sense

and historically the hairstyle would have been worn by young unmarried ladies
(as married ladies tend to do more with their hair) and the clothing suggests everyday noble lady

male hat is mostly younger male style historically and the clothing is also definitely more in noble style
in male clothes it is more common to not have the hat added to the outfit especially in modern sense

though im not exactly sure why they chose that particular male hanbok
and idk if its going with the student theme like the hat hmm

Liberty Lee has new formal look

its bit weird the outfit isn't in formal category though
and I was wishing for more swatches :/ oh well at least there is hanboks

I don't think we have any young could be korean guys in the game huh...
I mean theres dennis but he is bit old to dress up like school boy maybe :sweat_smile:
I feel like they should have perhaps went with more standard hanbok for guys but it is what it is

I do feel like these were maybe more with romantic historical dramas in mind than wedding wear though
maybe the female attire goes for guests to weddings though hmm

Oh no , now my townies no doubt will be wandering round dressed like something from a circus

Looks great, yeah I often feel that the outfits in the game are often not very "standard" they often feel very over the top.

I'm not sure what pre-made sims we have that are korean, there is Vanessa Yong I suppose, and I never made the connection that Liberty Lee might be korean. But I guess it's up to the player to decide as well.

Well Lee is common surname in korea so I sort of figured that she could be mixed or have korean heritage but born in ''willow creek''
there isn't really any info on her parents or anything either so I just ran with it :lol:

Kim is another so Alice and Dennis could do too
but I already have them in the earlier modernized korean wear which suits them better in my opinion

That's good, personally, I think that's how one should play the sims. It's tricky though when Maxis are focusing on representation I feel that I need to use some clothes right, I wonder how people might feel if I'm posting a picture of a sim wearing this outfit who is much more likely to be japanese (like Miko Ojo for example). Korea and Japan have a complicated history.

This is exactly why I prefer not to have real-world cultural items, people, or places in the game. All of my sims have their own "pretend" cultures, which follow whatever looks and customs I tell them to do. I think the game does try to stylize real-world inspirations somewhat, but I think many players take them too literally. And that's why it doesn't matter what we do; someone somewhere is going to be offended by it. So I just play my own way with no intent to step on any toes. But if people do have a problem with that, well it's... their problem with that.

I don't mind real-world cultural items, as long as I know what culture that they are from... I was considering giving Miko Ojo this outfit but reading this thread I feel that it's not appropriate. And I had to go to the forums to find that out.

Anyway, I think you are right, somewhere, someone is going to feel offended and there is not much we can do about it.

I think it would be fine and at worst, I think people would be curious about why someone is dressing up "Japanese" sims in Korean clothes. If there's a reason, it's cool, but I can imagine some may be slightly annoyed if a player wants a traditional look and thinks that Japan and Korea are similar so yukata or hanbok it doesn't matter...

Honestly, though, it's a game. Hanbok is not a religious item and only trolls are going to raise a fuss what Sims can wear what. People are just happy to have more clothes in the game. No one cares.

Yes, this for me as well. I have always preferred stories in fictional worlds because of this reason.
