Seollal - Celebrating Korean Lunar New Year
Seollal, also known as Korean Lunar New Year, holds deep cultural significance in South Korea. This annual three-day holiday, occurring on the first day of the lunar calendar, is a time for family reunions, giving thanks to ancestors, and partaking in traditional customs.
During Seollal, Koreans take part in ancestral rites called "charye" to honor their family heritage. This involves preparing an altar with offerings of food and performing formal bows as a sign of respect. Additionally, a traditional game called "yutnori" is popular during this festive period, bringing families together for friendly competition.
