Elderly wearing baji.

Baji ( Korean: 바지 [1]) is a kind of traditional Korean pant that is part of the hanbok. [2] [3] A baji is baggy and loose, so it is tied around the waist. [2] In the past, Korean men wore baji as outer clothing, but for women, it gradually became part of the inner clothing. [2] Today, women wear chima for their outer clothes. [2]
