K-Ssireum belt,The Satba in your bus?

Ssireum, a traditional Korean sport practiced
through using a 'Satba', connecting the players' waist
and thigh their torso, hands and legs with power and
techniques to push the opponent to the ground.

The history of Ssireum began in the Ancient times.
As a designated National Intangible Cultural Heritage,
it has been preserved·inherited until now.
And it was 'inscribed on the UNESCO's
Representative List of the Intangible
Cultural Heritage of Humanity, on the basis
of a joint application by the South and North Korea' in 2018.

The firmly tied Satba
has become your seat belt.

This is the campaign organized
by the Ministry of Culture, Sports
and Tourism to celebrate the Ssireum Day on June 22.

his campaign began to promote Korea
with Ssireum as one kind of K-sports.

‘Satba' is one of the most essential elements of Ssireum.
The Satba that takes a firm stand against
the opponent's techniques and the seat belt
that fastens your body in the shaky vehicle.

I wish the meeting between these two will add
thrilling tension to your trip.

Traditional Korean sport, Ssireum.
Enjoy the dynamic round.
