1. A wire harness comprising:
a core wire having a flat straight section whose vertical height is smaller than a width thereof and a bend section that is bent from an end of the straight section, wherein:
the straight section of the core wire is formed from a second assembled wire obtained only by twisting or braiding together first wires, each of the first wires being obtained by twisting or braiding elemental wire strands, and
the bend section of the core wire is formed only by untwisting or unbraiding the first wires from the end of the straight section so that the first wires in the bend section are arranged adjacently to each other in a direction orthogonal to a vertical direction.
