about Chuseok


Chuseok is August 15th in Lunar calender another word for Han Ga Wi. I Korea 'Han' mean big and Ga Wi mean big day in August. Korean pray for their ancestor, go to their ancestors grave, they area playing korean games and eating fall food.
They are eating many foods, especialy they are eating song pheon hte most. In song pheon we are putting beans or stuffs. Their is history of song pheon. When adult make very prettly becasue when make very pretty then they can marry with pretty and handsome person.
They are praying for their ancestor. When they gave foods for ancestor's ghosts. Long times ago people gave chicken for visitor in Chuseok. Also they are going to ancestor's grave and praying for them

Before, Chuseok my mother said when she was young she bought new clothes because when my mother was young that time was so poor. She was playing kang kang sul lae whitch is Korean traditional game.

I want to follow this traditional chuseok not what we want to do. I will asked my mother can we try this ways except praying for ancestor becasue my mother said christian people never pray for other except God. It will be fun
