What kind of fabric is South Korean silk?
South Korean silk is a clothing fabric imported from South Korea. Some people call it “Korean silk”. The reason why it is called silk is that It is made of 30% polyester + 70% silk blend. South Korean silk has excellent drape and texture. It is often used to produce sportswear and ties. Because it is an imported fabric that is subject to customs duties, the price will be higher.

Even if wrinkles appear, it can be quickly restored to its original shape by ironing at low temperature.
Then the elasticity and toughness of South Korean silk are very good, and the fabric will generally not deform without artificial damage. , and it is easy to dye and not easy to fade, and the bright colors of the fabric are very fashionable.
Disadvantages of South Korean silk fabrics:
Qian Mian mentioned that the price of South Korean silk will be more expensive, and it is more used to produce mid-to-high-end clothing, so South Korea Silk will not be as popular in the market as cotton and linen fabrics.
South Korean silk is a polyester blend, so it also has some defects of silk. First of all, silk fabrics are easy to snag. If the silk is damaged, be careful to stay away from sharp objects when wearing South Korean silk fabric. Furthermore, its thermal insulation effect is also very limited, so it is not suitable for the production of warm clothing.
