Hanok

Hanok is a word from Korea that means "traditional house". It's like the grown-up version of a playhouse. These houses are really pretty and special because they're built in a special way that has been around for a long time.

The walls are made of paper instead of hard bricks or wood like we usually see in houses. This is because the Koreans who made these houses way back when wanted to use natural materials that were easy to find. They also wanted to let in lots of light, so the paper walls aren't completely solid.

Another cool thing about hanok is the shape of the roof. It's like a big triangle that slopes down towards the ground. This helps protect the house from rain and snow.

Finally, hanok are special because they're designed to work with the environment around them. That means the house is built to keep its inhabitants cool in the summer and warm in the winter without electricity, by using cool breezes and sun exposure to regulate the temperature inside.

So, to sum it up, hanok are traditional Korean houses that are really pretty and special because they're made of natural materials like paper, have a unique shape, and use the local environment to keep the house comfy.
