Today, I went to the Seoul Museum of History. I learned about Joseon dynasty. I leared many things at the museum. The most interesting that I was about Hopae and Embroidered Patterns. First, Hopae was an ID card in the Joseon dynasty. People had to show it to gate keeper before they enter the gate. On the front of the Hopae, there was the person's name and the date when that person born, and the class of that person. On the back of the Hopae, there was a date of issue. And there was differences between noble people's Hopae and common people's Hopae. Noble people's Hopae was made by the shark's bone.

And the common people's Hopae was made by the wood. Also, servent's Hopae was different by noble's Hopae. On servent's Hopae there was how long that person is, and the person's skin color and other things because servent's could run away. Second, I was interested about Embroidered Patterns. Only kings and crown prince  had dragon pattern. Civil officers had crane patterns which symbolized integrity. And military officers had tiger patters which represented bravery. Iwas interesting in this 2things and I hope I can visit this museum again.
