Lunar New Years 2009
Last Monday marked my 4th Lunar New Years here in Korea, which is Korea’s biggest holiday. The kids all wear traditional Korean outfits (hanboks) and do a bowing ceremony (in respect, not worship) to their “parents:” Pastor Chae and his wife. The kids then each receive money and snacks. Enjoy the pictures…
