Hats were once essential components of every Korean's wardrobe. During the Joseon dynasty (1392–1910), hats marked the wearer's social status, cultural identity, and more. Today, as popular Korean dramas reach global audiences through streaming services, Korean men’s hats – gats – are receiving new and increased attention. In this in person program, curators and art historians Drs. Jinyoung A. Jin, Jiyeon Kim, and Vicki Sung-yeon Kwon explore the history and diversity of Korean men's hat styles, their interconnection with the social classes, identities, cultures, and masculinities within Korean society, and their place in the international art market and museum landscapes.
