What do you think a hot summer day in August was like in Joseon?
There is a Korean proverb that says, "The gift for Dano is a fan, and the gift for the winter solstice is a calendar".
It means that it will soon be summer as Dano is nearing. During this time, fans with handwriting or drawing on them were gifted as a wish for a cool summer.
The illustration on this fan depicts a scarlet campsis flower, which is commonly seen on Korean roads in summer.
The symbolic meanings of the campsis flower are "honor" and "longing".
How about sending this illustrated postcard to someone you miss so they can feel the meaning of the campsis flower?
Do you have someone you miss, too?
