Jikryeong

Jikryeong, sometimes written as jikryung  or jingnyeong and also known as jikryeongpo , is a type of po with a straight neckline. It could be worn as an outwear by men and was sometimes worn under the danryeong. The jikryeong was worn in ordinary times and was worn all year round. It was also worn as a mourning attire during the Joseon period. Following the Japanese invasion (1592–1598), its usage as an outerwear decreased and was more often used as an undergarment. After the latter half of the 17th century, the jikryeong was turned into an inner lining for the danryeong, thus turning to a single lined garment.

The jikryeong could be unlined, lined, and padded. It was natural raw hemp white in colour when used as a mourning attire.
