This object is presumed to be an official uniform for a military officer during the late Joseon Period, judging from the fact that the rank badges embroidered with two tigers are attached to the front and back of the robe. It displays poor sewing, and its breast tie is unusually short. The fabric and the embroidery of the rank badges do not really go well with the robe in general.
