The purpose of this study was to measure partial heat resistance of Hanbok when it worn. Since Hanbok varies from season to season, four different set of Hanboks (R, SN, P and S) were tested. Also Durumagi (D) which is worn over Hanbok (S) to keep warm from winter cold was tested as well. The thermal manikin was used in this experiment. The room temperature, air velocity and the relative humidity was set at 20±0.5˚C, 0.15 m/sec and 50±5% respectively. The mean skin temperature of the manikin was set at 33±0.5˚C. The results were as follows: 1. The order from the least total heat resistance to the most was SN, R, P, S and D. 2. Upper arms had the highest heat resistance among the 13 parts. The next was abdomen, thighs, buttock, legs, forearms and chest, back, and head, the order from the most to the least.
