Subject: Khan Tang |
Post No: 1214 Reply to: 1212 |
It's a part of Oriental culture: respects for elderly, higher-rank people,...For example, when a son or daughter dies, parents do not wear khan tang, but when parents die, children must wear khan tang. Thus, when childrens die before their parents, they put khan tang on their coffin. |
