Korean’s are getting ready for the sun in the latest new fashion trend in beach wear.

This season has seen rash guards become quite the trending item, with more people choosing to wear them instead of your typical bikini or one-piece swimsuit, especially when visiting theme parks or water parks.

Rash guards used to be more common amongst surfers and divers in western countries, whereas Koreans seem to prefer them for their coverage and sun protection.
