As school uniform

In Japan, some schools for the Korean minority use a girls' uniform that is based on the chima jeogori. This form of chima jeogori are white shirt and shorter ankle length black or blue dress. From May to June 1994, schoolgirls in such uniforms became the targets for verbal abuse and threats, and their uniforms were slashed. For the safety of the children, from April, 1999 most of these schools use the chima jeogori inside the school and allow students to wear another non-chima jeogori uniform (the second uniform 第2制服) to go to school and go home.
