Korean Mail Order Catalogs and Advertisements with Boys Clothings: Chronology


Figure 1.--Here we have school uniforms offered by a Korean on-line catalog in 2005. Unfirtunately because we do not have Korean language capability, we do not have details from the ad copy. Click on the image to see sweaters rather than the jacket.

We have very limited information from Korea. The country is one of the great success stories in Asia. Korean prosperity has created a consumer economy that has begun to approach Japanese levels of prosperity. We have been able to obtain very little informatio on Korean caalogs and clothing advertisements. Some infrmation on the 2000s is available from on-line catalogs. We are not sure when the first catalogs appeared, probanly the 1970s. Advertisements would have appeared before this. Computer use is quite intebsive and Korean consumers do a great deal of on-line purchasing. Of course we are talking about South Korea. I doubt if North Korea has any clothing catalogs or even clothing advertisements.

Here we see school uniforms offered in 2005 (figure 1). Of course we are talking about South Korea. I doubt if North Korea has any clothing catalogs or even clothing advertisements.
