content: "Late 19th century. Bleached cotton. These are unlined underwear which are similar to dan-sokgot, outer drawers (cat. no. 32). They are less bulky, have tying strings fastened on the left, and have longer legs. Naechinui usually are made of calico, cotton, or cotton broadcloth (Kim, 1988b: 124). Naechinui clarifies that the garment rests against the skin. Bernadou Field Notes 121 "... Inner drawers of cotton. Resemble somewhat the 'divided skirt'... Fastened at the left side at the hip." Collected in Seoul. Ref: Hough Korean Catalog p. 449; Bernadou Field Notes 121" [from: "An Ethnography of the Hermit Kingdom: The J.B. Bernadou Korean Collection 1884-1885", Chang-su Cho Houchins, 2004, number 33]
