Aekjureum is  noble men's coat used to be worn on jacket and trousers. A double layered cotton Aekjureum coat. It is assumed that the fabric was dyed in indigo blue but much faded in the ground. To compare with other coats excavated from the same tomb, its sleeves are straight from the underarm to the curved sleeve end. The breast ties attached outside are long enough to wrap around the bodice. It's noticeable that the structure of this type of clothing is flexible throughout the ones from the same period.
