Jikryeong ( Korean: 직령; Hanja: 直領; RR: jingnyeong; lit. Straight collar), sometimes written as jikryung [1] or jingnyeong and also known as jikryeongpo (직령포; 直領袍; jingnyeongpo), is a type of po with a straight neckline. [2] [3] It could be worn as an outwear by men and was sometimes worn under the danryeong. [2] The jikryeong was worn in ordinary times [4] and was worn all year round. [2] It was also worn as a mourning attire [2] during the Joseon period. [3] Following the Japanese invasion (1592–1598), its usage as an outerwear decreased and was more often used as an undergarment. [2] 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. [2]
The collar of the jikryeong as its name indicate is straight collar, closing to the right side. [2] It may also come with rectangular side panels (무, moo) on each side of the robe. [2] [5]
The jikryeong could be unlined, lined, and padded. [2] It was natural raw hemp white in colour when used as a mourning attire. [2]
