For why? Are you infact a troll?

If you mean south (you are delightfully vague on what you mean), we see very little here although those who do post tend to be western influenced. Try using search rather than asking questions. Have you looked at any web sites.

If you meant North then it appears uniform drabness pertains.

I'm sorry, I meant for South Korea. I just wanted to see if their latest trend is similar to the poeple in the U.S. For instance I notice many people now wear fitted shirts and jeans, but I don't see too many Koreans wear printed shirts. Now is that true? or is that just bad analyzing on my part.

I heard people in S.Korea loves sports wear is that true? I know sports like soccer and baseball is very popular in S.Korea, and even video games like StarCraft gets some recognition. So do people in S.Korea wear jerseys or t-shirts of their favorite team, or are we atlking about sports wear in warm ups or windbreakers

Southern style:



You can never have a suit that is too shiny.



Black and silver is the SK tweed...you can wear it anywhere and be "stylish" and not out of place.

For years S. Korean fashion was simply... white socks. Everything w/ white socks. Suits came only in two colors. Robins egg blue suit and white socks. Black suit. And white socks. And socks are embroidered w/ the maker's label, e.g., "Try" and "BYC". Pretty fancy. I was BYC man.

Now they have socks of another racy color. Black. Also, if you watch Korean TV the lads like wearing teeny tiny clip-on bow ties.

Yes, jerseys of a foreign team that must have a Korean player are very popular. ManU 'cuz of Park and LA Dodgers 'cuz of other Park and Gunners 'cuz of another Park. And the jerseys must be fake.

The ones I always see around here tend to dress normally, like jeans and a polo. Nothing too outlandish. Maybe I just live in the not-trendy neighborhood. I have seen some shiny suits, though.
