Paeok, referring to jade ornaments, was hung around the waist with ceremonial attire. The clear clacking sound of jade ornaments was believed to ward off evil spirits, and eradicate evil thoughts. Blue artificial jade, called beoncheongok, was used to make paeok for first- to third-rank officials, and white artificial jade, called beonbaekok, for officials below fourth rank. When wearing paeok, it was placed in a pouch so as not to be tangled by wind. It was worn by Hwang Cheol (黃鐵, 1864-1930).
