Introduce the luxurious and unique Yut game set

that is sold at the Korea National Souvenir Center.

HANYUT is a Yut game set

 that was inspired from the Joseon traditional board game of Seunggyeongdo

and reinterpreted the existing four Yut Garak with one Yut stick!

The stick use a delicate, solid piece of straw.

Beautiful colored brass and red copper were combined in harmony using inlaid technique.

It is also said that the wood is made of eco-friendly oil.

Metal materials will be more vintage as time goes by!

Since the stick and the pieces are made up of hexagonal and circular shapes,

you can feel the aesthetics and formative characteristics.

Wait here!

Usually, Yut sticks are composed of four pieces.

HANYUT has one especially thick, but only light.

Don't you wonder how do you divide 'Do, Gae, Gul, Yut, Mo'?

If you throw a Yut stick and the side that has five circles will be 'Mo'

A long circle is a single backwards movement, 'Backdo'.

Another unique feature of HANYUT is

 its low probability of having a chance to throw twice when the stick is placed.

Anyone can enjoy these rules

because this is the same as Yut game we know about.
