The hanbok can be traced back to the Three Kingdoms of Korea period (57 BC to 668 AD). The origin of ancient hanbok can be found in the ancient clothing of what is now today's Northern Korea and Manchuria; the ancient hanbok shared similarities with the clothing of the nomadic culture, hobok, through the ancient Korean's cultural exchange with the northern nomads of Scythai. Despite Scythai's influence, the ancient hanbok of ancient Korea which consists of today's Manchuria and Northern Korea was distinct from Scythai's clothing. Early forms of Hanbok can be seen in the art of Goguryeo tomb murals in the same period from the 6th century AD.
