Family Day: Korean New Year 2012
Family Day: Korean New Year 2012

On the snowy afternoon of Saturday, January 21, 2012, dozens of families joined The Korea Society to celebrate sŏllal, Korean New Year. Participants enjoyed a day of fun-filled family activities such as a puppet show for the folk tale The Blue Dragon, the New Year’s bow (sebae), traditional games such as tuhonori (similar to horseshoes) and yutnori, a dance and sing-a-long, and kite-making, mask-making, and other crafts. As a bonus, tasty Korean treats such as param ttŏk, mujigae ttŏk, and sik‘ye were sampled by all. Unforgettable memories were made at The Korea Society! We hope to see everyone next year!
