양산 An umbrella

Have you heard of 양산?

양산 is similar to an umbrella, but it is for blocking the <em></em>sun, <em>(<--this part is confusing because umbrellas are also used to block the</em> sun.<em> I only corrected it grammatically)</em> so it has a UV index


Many Korean women (Mrs) carry a 양산 in their bag. In Korea, fair skin is beauty factor, so many women put up umbrellas while they walk down a street on sunny days. <em>***there are many ways to say the last sentence without changing the meaning</em>

Parasol is originated from western, so most of the westerners know it.(Please refer to wikipedia.) However, Koreans call the big ones as 'parasol', and small ones as "양산, a combined word of sun and umbrella".

The word for a device to protect you from the sun is "parasol". An umbrella protects you from the rain, a parasol protects you from the sun.
