Embroidered bojagi (subo) were used for
special occasions such as engagements and weddings. The most
popular embroidered bojagi were those made to wrap a wooden
goose presented on the wedding day by bridegroom to the bride’s
family as his pledge to be faithful and a good provider.
The motifs on these pieces are simplified and abstracted
shapes of trees, fruits, butterflies and birds related to
wishes for temporal prosperity and happiness.
