Dapho
Dapho (Korean: 답호), also known as dapbok or dapo, is either a sleeveless or short sleeved garment (banbi ui, 半臂 衣), The dapo originated in the Yuan dynasty and was introduced in Korea during the late Goryeo. With time the structure of the dapho changed in shape structure although it maintained the same name. Some form of dapho was introduced from China's Ming dynasty in the form of dahu during the Joseon period, when the clothing was bestowed to various Joseon kings (e.g. under the reign of King Sejong).
