1. Blot stain with a damp cloth or sponge. Avoid rubbing the stain to prevent it from spreading.
2. Mix cold water with a few drops of liquid dish soap. Dip a clean cloth into the sudsy mixture and gently rub it into the soy sauce stained area.
3. Rinse the area with fresh, cold water to remove soap residue before blotting with a dry towel.
4. If any stain remains, use a pre-treatment stain remover designed for colorfast fabrics. Follow the instructions on the label for application.
5. Before washing Hanbok, check the fabric’s label for cleaning instructions. Most Hanbok is machine washable in cold water.
6. Once Hanbok is washed, hang it up to dry. Never put it in the dryer as the heat may cause damage.
Now you know how to keep your Hanbok looking its best and protect it from soy sauce stains. The delicate Korean fabric is a stunning accessory or gift, and with just a few simple steps, it can stay clean and vibrant. Good luck!
